Prayer and Solitude

GOD is often lost in prayers and ordinances.—"Enter into thy chamber," said He. "and shut thy door about thee." "Shut thy door about thee," means, shut out not only frivolity, but business; not only the company abroad, but the company at home; it means—let the poor soul have a little rest and refreshment, and God have opportunity to speak to thee in a still small voice, or He will speak in thunder. I am persuaded the Lord would often speak more softly if we would shut the door.—Cecil.
