thoughts on prayer

I saw this quote today.
"Prayer and suffering are the two primary paths of transformation. Only people who have first lived and loved, suffered and failed, and lived and loved again, are in a position to read the Scriptures in a humble, needy, inclusive and finally fruitful way."
(from Things Hidden: Scripture As Spirituality by Richard Rohr)

Working through difficult times with understanding and the courage to dig deep is prayer. It brings change. Sometimes drastically good change.
