"祈らないことで霊的な渇きが生じる。"
— Charles Spurgeon
Simplified Meaning:
When people stop praying, they often feel disconnected from their sense of peace and inner strength. It's like when plants don't get any water—they start to wither and become weak. In the same way, when a person stops praying, they might feel empty or lost inside. Imagine having a good friend you always talk to. If you suddenly stop talking to them, you'd probably feel lonely and not as happy. Prayer is like that important conversation with a friend, but it's with your spiritual side or higher powers. To stay spiritually healthy, just like keeping a plant or friendship healthy, you need consistent care—in this case, regular prayer. By making time for prayer, people can keep their spirits uplifted and maintain a sense of connection and well-being.
