Our prayers should be for blessings in general, for God knows best what is good for us. |
Pray, not only because you need something, but because you have a lot to be thankful for. |
Under certain circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer. |
Prayer is a confession of one's own unworthiness and weakness. |
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart. |
Prayer is not overcoming God's reluctance, but laying hold of his willingness. |
Work as if you were to live a hundred years, pray as if you were to die tomorrow. |
Prayer is of no avail. The lightning falls on the just and the unjust in accordance with natural laws. |
Nothing fails like prayer. |
The hands that help are better far than lips that pray. |
