The highest result of prayer is not deliverance from evil, or the securing of some coveted thing, but knowledge of God.
When you give up all Hope is when you have truly lost.
When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.
God has many things to say to us. He has many thoughts to put into our minds. We are apt to be so busy doing His work that we do not stop to listen to His Word.
Our value to God and to man is in exact proportion to the extent in which we reveal the glory of God to others.
It is not too much to say that all real growth in the spiritual life–all victory over temptation, all confidence and peace in the presence of difficulties and dangers, all repose of spirit in times of great disappointment or loss, all habitual communion with God–depend upon the practice of secret prayer.
Prayer is an offering up of our desires unto God for things agreeable to His will, in the name of Christ, with confession of our sins and thankful, acknowledgment of His mercies.
Place your heart in the hands of God and He will place it in the hands of a man who He believes deserves it.
We cannot be wrong with man and right with God. The spirit of prayer is essentially the spirit of love. Intercession is simply love at prayer.
