The words of Floyd McClung met me today, as I read his article, Apostolic Passion:
"A young man in Bible school offered to help David Wilkerson years ago when he was ministering on the streets of New York City. Wilkerson asked him how much time he spent in prayer. The young student estimated about 20 minutes a day. Wilkerson told him, "Go back, young man. Go back for a month and pray two hours a day, every day for 30 days. When you've done that, come back. Come back, and I might consider turning you loose on the streets where there is murder, rape, violence and danger. If I sent you out now on 20 minutes a day, I'd be sending a soldier into battle without any weapons, and you would get killed."

Dear Gretchen. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for putting up this post. I read it when you first posted it and was challenged to spend time in prayer at night as well as in the morning. I had been thinking about it for some time... and this pushed me to do it. I am LOVING it. Praying - time with God - is just so essential. Bless you! Lisa
