Christians like microwave-type praying.
Our God desires marinating-type praying.

I think this probably hits most of us pretty hard, as it is so much easier to grumble than to take a little extra effort to find something good to say. We would all be much better off if we took some time to think about things before we act or speak; better yet to [...]
