Men of God are always men of prayer.
Henry T. Mahan
In the silence of the heart God speaks. If you face God in prayer and silence, God will speak to you. Then you will know that you are nothing. It is only when you realize your nothingness, your emptiness, that God can fill you with Himself. Souls of prayer are souls of great silence.
Mother Teresa
The function of prayer is not to influence God, but rather to change the nature of the one who prays.
JK Rowling
Obstinate are the trammels, but my heart aches when I try to break them. Freedom is all I want, but to hope for it I feel ashamed. I am certain that priceless wealth is in thee, and that thou art my best friend, but I have not the heart to sweep away the tinsel that fills my room. The shroud that covers me is a shroud of dust and death; I hate it, yet hug it in love. My debts are large, my failures great, my shame secret and heavy; yet when I come to ask for my good, I quake in fear lest my prayer be granted.
Rabindranath Tagore
There are four pillars to a happy marriage: respect one another as individuals; give soft answers; practice financial honesty; conduct family prayer.
Barbra Streisand
Prayer is not an old woman s idle amusement. Properly understood and applied, it is the most potent instrument of action.
Martin Luther
Prayer at it's best is the expression of the total life, for all things else being equal, our prayers are only as powerful as our lives
A.W. Tozer
This socalled new religion is nothing but a pack of weird rituals and chants designed to take away the money of fools. Now let us say the lords prayer 40 times, but first let's pass the collection plate.' Rev. Lovejoy
