“If God had perceived that our greatest need was economic, he would have sent an economist. If he had perceived that our greatest need was entertainment, he would have sent us a comedian or an artist. If God had perceived that our greatest need was political stability, he would have sent us a politician. If he had perceived that our greatest need was health, he would have sent us a doctor. But he perceived that our greatest need involved our sin, our alienation from him, our profound rebellion, our death; and he sent us a Savior.”
- D.A. Carson, A Call to Spiritual Reformation

Great book! Hope you're enjoying it.
This is one of the most beneficial books I have ever read. The Christ centeredness of Paul's prayers is amazing and convicted me tremendously in my prayer life. I would recommended reading it multiple times if you're like me and tend to waver into superficial prayers. I should read it again!
