CS Lewis' perspective on prayer in his own voice.

by Ted Budd September 16, 2009

Have you ever seen the movie Bruce Almighty? Bruce steps in for God for a while and is overwhelmed by all the incoming prayers. Is that really the way God receives all of mankind's prayers? Listen to his perspective on eternity and time. Perhaps it will encourage you to know how God views time and how that influences his hearing of our prayers. Enjoy!

I loved Lewis' laid back talking style. It is just like he was having a conversation. I also liked his analogy to the author of a book putting down the book at a crucial moment in the story. To the character in the book there is no break, but the creator who outside the timeframe of the book could pull away. For me it is kind of confusing to try to wrap my arms around until I just focus in on the truth that God can somehow give me one-on-one attention even with all of the other people praying at the same time. That is where I find comfort. Ted, thanks for sharing the audio clip.
