How ready is heaven to those that pray!

Prayer is a strong wall and fortress of the church; it is a goodly Christian's weapon.

Who rises from prayer a better man, his prayer is answered.

There are few men who durst publish to the world the prayers they make to Almighty God.

So let us all who pray ask for what most of them need badly, a sense of humor to lighten their way through life, making it merrier for themselves and easier for others.

Night after night I prayed, with a fervour never previously attained in my prayers, "Please God, do not let me wet my bed! Oh, please God, do not let me wet my bed!"

In his prayers he says, thy will be done: but means his own, at least acts so.

Prayer, among sane people, has never superseded practical efforts to secure the desired end.

My words fly up, my thoughts remain below. Words without thoughts never to heaven go.

The unlettered man who prayed to his maker would be heard; the pedant reciting a faultless invocation would be ignored.
