Rosalind Rinker emphasizes that prayer should be a personal and intimate conversation with God, rather than a formal or ritualistic practice. She recounts her own experiences, such as her first time praying aloud at a cottage prayer meeting, where she realized that prayer is about speaking directly to Jesus, not performing for others. This personal approach to prayer transforms it from a duty into a meaningful dialogue. Rinker writes, 'I would pray aloud, and I would speak straight to Him. I would not be afraid and I would not care if there were tears, and I would not care if my words got tangled up and I would not care if my prayer was like the others or if it wasn’t.' | Rosalind Rinker | Prayer
