Hi Tom,
While I visit The Highway often, I seldom post. I have read many of your posts Tom, and always enjoy them and the ensuing discussion they inevitably provoke.
I share your liking for pithy quotes! John Trapp's phrase "fullness of content in fewness of words"is quite apt!
I was also encouraged by your admirable desire to link Scripture and Prayer into one memorable concise quote. I was reminded of you this morning when reading Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 85:
"If we would have God to hear what we say to him by prayer, we must be ready to hear what he says to us by his word" MHC on Ps 85:8-12.
The problem with your original quote was the use the word "informs", so I gave some thought to a substitute word appropriate to both Scripture and Prayer. I think I have a word which is worth considering:
"Scripture solicits prayer; prayer solicits Scripture"
It also has the added appeal of symmetry and alliteration.
Thank you again Tom for your enjoyable posts.
Tom Mor.
