The necessity of ardent prayer


Pray, pray—just pray continuously now.  The miracles of ardent prayer are beyond description and explanation.  One marvels how the sea subsides and how the fierce winds stop!  Many times temptations arise like a fearful storm and relentless winds that threaten us with total destruction.  But by crying out the prayer, “Master, save us, we are perishing,” (Luke 8:24), you will see that all becomes calm miraculously, and we are saved.  Amen.
