Prayer Quotes
Prayer is your personal key to heaven.
Boyd K. Packer
I’m convinced that one of the most powerful forces on earth is the prayer of a child.
Wess Stafford
You can have a silence full of words. A lute retains, in its bowl, the notes it has played. The viol, in its strings, holds a concord. A shriveled petal can hold its scent, a prayer can rattle with curses; an empty house, when the owners have gone out, can still be loud with ghosts.
Hilary Mantel
You're no longer fighting God, trying to make Him do what you want. You're accepting what happens, and your main prayer transforms into one that asks God for nothing more than understanding and perhaps strength to endure.
Amy Welborn
Prayer is and remains always a native and deepest impulse of the soul of man.
Thomas Carlyle
Build and they will come’ is not a strategy, it’s a prayer.
Steve Blank
On every level of life, from housework to heights of prayer, in all judgment and efforts to get things done, hurry and impatience are sure marks of the amateur.
Evelyn Underhill
Something always happened, you see. A Yiddish song on Hanukkah, a British rabbi's prayer on the radio, some kindness on a train or in the street that reminded me, no matter how far I retreated, no matter how deep into self-denial my fear drove me, that the Jews would always be my people and I would always belong to them.
Edith Hahn Beer
What is prayer but meditation? What is a demon but a fear that lives inside us, one we cannot easily conquer on our own?
John Searles
The power of prayer is like turning on a light as it illuminates God's purpose for our lives. There is no greater connection to knowing His will other than the word.
Thomas Kinkade
The Christian in prayer comes up close to God, with a humble boldness of faith, and takes hold of him, wrestles with him; yea, will not let him go without a blessing... They are only a few noble-spirited souls, who dare take heaven by force, that are fit for this calling.
William Gurnall
If laser beams can cut through mountains, why should we doubt the power of prayer?
William Arthur Ward
In order for us to be able to love, we need to have faith, because faith is love in action and love in action is service. In order for us to be able to love, we have to see and touch. Faith in action through prayer, faith in action through service: each is the same thing, the same love, the same compassion.
Mother Teresa
If we ask of the saints how they achieved spiritual effectiveness, they are only able to reply that, insofar as they did it themselves, they did it by love and prayer.
Evelyn Underhill
God is much in the difficult home problems as in the times of quiet and prayer.
Evelyn Underhill
Unless we fix certain hours in the day for prayer, it easily slips from our memory.
John Calvin
At the heart of silence is prayer. At the heart of prayer is faith. At the heart of faith is life. At the heart of life is service.
Mother Teresa
Joy is the characteristic by which God uses us to re-make the distressing into the desired, the discarded into the creative. Joy is prayer-Joy is strength-Joy is love-Joy is a net of love by which you can catch souls.
Mother Teresa
