The Prayer of the Heart Let all pray: you should live by prayer, as you should live by love. "I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that ye may be rich." (Rev. 3:18.) This is very easily obtained, much more easily than you can conceive. Come all ye that are athirst to the living waters, nor lose your precious moments in hewing out cisterns that will hold no water. (John 7:37; Jeremiah 2:13.) Come ye famishing souls, who find bought to satisfy you; come, and ye shall be filled! Come, ye poor afflicted ones, bending beneath your load of wretchedness and pain, and ye shall be consoled! Come, ye sick to your physician, and be not fearful of approaching him because ye are filled with diseases; show them, and they shall be healed! Children, draw near to your Father, and he will embrace you in the arms of love! Come ye poor, stray, wandering sheep, return to your Shepherd! Come, sinners, to your Saviour! Come ye dull, ignorant, and illiterate, ye are more peculiarly called and adapted thereto. Let all without exception come, for Jesus Christ hath called ALL. - Madam Jeanne Guyon
