Do you ever pray to God when you are alone?
You may pray to him in any PLACE—in the house or in the garden.
You may pray to him at any TIME—in the night or in the middle of the day.
You may ask him for anything you want, just as you ask your father.
What will you ask him for? Will you ask him to give you bread, and clothes, and a house to live in?
Yes, ask him for these things, but most of all—ask him for his Holy Spirit.
It is better to have the Holy Spirit than to have all the toys, all the money, all the flowers, all the birds, all the beautiful things in the world.
Why is it better?
Because the Holy Spirit will make you love God, as the angels do, and will make you live forever and ever.
Will you say this little prayer to God?—“O my Father, pray give me thy Holy Spirit, for Christ’s sake.”
