14. A sweet prayer, and so spiritual that it is almost as commonly used in
Christian worship as the apostolic benediction. Words are mockery if the heart
does not meditate; but both together are useless unless accepted; and even if
accepted by man, it is all vanity if not acceptable in the sight of God. We
must in prayer view Jehovah as our strength enabling, and our Redeemer
saving, or we shall not pray aright, and it is well to feel our personal
interest so as to use the word my, or our prayers will be hindered.
Blessed Redeemer, give us now to meditate acceptably upon thy most sweet love and
tenderness.
