Prayerlessness
Indicates a lack of love. I talk with those I love. If I cannot talk with them it creates an ache in my heart. And yet I can go hours without speaking to my Lord. And days without true heart-to-heart communication. Prayerlessness also indicates a lack of faith. Even if love will not motivate one to prayer, a desire for supernatural providence may provide ample motivation, unless we do not, in our real thinking, not our theology, believe that God is powerful and active. Again, if we do not truly desire what He desires, then we will not pray. If I do not trust his desires, I will not ask for them. I will pray if I love him, believe in him and trust him, wanting what he wants. Open our hearts to be changed by your Holy Spirit into believers who love and trust.
