George Muller’s Green Eyeshade

I would liked to have said that what is novel about my method of prayer is the fact that besides keeping a record of a prayer, I also keep a record of what dates I prayed it on. But it turns out that that is exactly what George Muller did, too.

“He made it a habit to keep a notebook with two page entries. On one page he gave the petition and the date, and on the opposite page he entered the date of the answer. In this manner he was able to keep record of definite petitions, and their specific answers. He recommended this form to believers who desired specific results to their prayers. Thus there is no guesswork as to when God answers prayers.”

Hmmm. It seems that in this thing called Christianity, originality is very hard to come by.
