Prayer

The world is full of distractions. Because of that, many of us struggle to be fully present in any given moment, whether at work, or with our families, or even in our times alone with God. A.W. Tozer, a well-known Christian author from the 20th Century, wrote this, “Among the enemies to devotion none is so harmful as distractions. Whatever excites the curiosity, scatters the thoughts, disquiets the heart, absorbs the interests or shifts our life focus from the kingdom of God within us to the world around us—that is a distraction; and the world is full of them.” Tozer goes on to argue that, "The remedy for distractions is the same now as it was in earlier and simpler times, that is to say, prayer, meditation and the cultivation of the inner life.”
