A Christian brother who lives in Africa tells about the men and women in his village who felt a need to have a place for prayer where they could escape from the rest of the tribe and find a quiet, peaceful place of solitude. Since they lived in a populous village, finding such a place became a challenge. But they began going out into the forest at the break of day to read their Bibles and pray. The African brother telling this story says that now if one becomes unfaithful and neglects taking time for prayer, the other believers will soon notice and reprimand him by saying, "Brother, the grass is beginning to grow on your path" (copied from the Devotional TOUCHING GOD, BY Harold J. Sala)
"Always keep on praying" 1 Thes. 5:17
Is there grass growing on the path your prayer closet?
