AHAVA SARAH FISCHER

In addition to the following wisdom extolled by Madame Guyon, I would also add waking up in the early hours for prayer ... My favourite prayer being the Lord's Prayer ( in particular the syriac Aramaic translation of the Lord's prayer.) Love, Ahava Sarah Fischer " Oh, my God, if the value of prayer were but known, the great advantage which accrues to the soul from conversing with Thee, and what consequence it is of to salvation, everyone would be assiduous in it . It is a stronghold into which the enemy cannot enter. He may attack it, besiege it, make a noise about its walls; but while we are faithful and hold our station, he cannot hurt us. It is alike requisite to dictate to children the necessity of prayer as of their salvation.

Stepping in unbounded into a very secret place we embark upon His silence ... where time ceases to have significance and the walls of creation open to greatest influence ... When all of creation rests in His breath, submerged in the bliss of His peace ... And the power to directly execute delivered with such extravagant ease ...  In the blink of an eye, hearts have been switched, mountains have been moved, nations have been transformed in the ponderous gaps between time.
