Are there people who are experts in praying?, its a good question,I wonder what's a good answer ? One of my favourite hymns is all about prayer,I feel led to leave it with you,it is by James Montgomery.
'Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,uttered or unexpressed,
The motion of a hidden fire,that trembles on the breast.
Prayer is the burden of a sky,the falling of a tear,
The upward glancing of an eye,when none but God is near
Prayer is the simplest form of speech,that infant lips can try;
Prayer, the sublimest strains that reach, the Majesty on high.
Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,the Christian's native air,
His watchword at the gates of death,he enters heaven with prayer.
Prayer is the contrite sinners voice,returning from his ways;
While angels in their songs rrejoice,and cry,behold he prays!
O Thou by whom we come to God,the Life,the Truth,the Way!
The path of prayerThyself hast trod; Lord teach us how to pray.'
