The Second Part of the Spirit of Prayer

The Second Part of the Spirit of Prayer is a book written by William Law. It is a continuation of Law's exploration of the concept of prayer and its role in the spiritual life. The book is divided into three sections, each of which focuses on a different aspect of prayer.The first section examines the importance of prayer in developing a deeper relationship with God. Law argues that prayer is not simply a means of asking for things, but rather a way of opening oneself up to God's presence and allowing Him to work in one's life.The second section of the book explores the different types of prayer, including petitionary prayer, thanksgiving, and intercession. Law provides guidance on how to approach each type of prayer and how to use them effectively in one's spiritual life.The final section of the book is devoted to the practice of contemplative prayer. Law argues that this type of prayer, which involves simply being still and silent in God's presence, is the most powerful and transformative form of prayer.Throughout the book, Law emphasizes the importance of cultivating a spirit of humility and openness in prayer. He also provides practical guidance on how to develop a regular prayer practice and overcome common obstacles to prayer.Overall, The Second Part of the Spirit of Prayer is a thoughtful and insightful exploration of the role of prayer in the spiritual life. It offers practical guidance and inspiration for anyone seeking to deepen their relationship with God through prayer.1758.
