"Love
to pray. Feel often during the day the need for prayer,
and take trouble to pray. Prayer enlarges the heart until
it is capable of containing God's gift of Himself. Ask
and seek and your heart will grow big enough to receive
Him"
Mother Theresa
"Prayer
is not an old woman's idle amusement. Properly understood
and applied, it is the most potent instrument of action."
Mahatma Gandhi
"If
the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank
you, it will be enough."
Meister Eckhart
"The
prayer of the man is not perfect until he no longer recognizes
himself or the fact that that he is praying."
St. Anthony
"Pray
with a sincere and simple heart, and your prayers will
be heard."
Sri Ramakrishna
"Prayer
is the heavenward soaring of soul on the wings of words."
Zarathushtra
"Heaven
is full of answers to prayer for which no one bothered
to ask."
Billy Graham
"There
is a polish for everything. There is a polish that takes
away rust; and the polish for the heart is the remembrance
of God."
Prophet Muhammad
"Prayer
does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater
work."
Oswald Chambers
"None
can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able
to effect, but those who have learned it by experience.
It is a great matter when in extreme need to take hold
on prayer. I know, whenever I have prayed earnestly, that
I have been amply heard, and have obtained more than I
prayed for. God indeed sometimes delayed, but at last
He came."
Martin Luther
"You
know the value of prayer: it is precious beyond all price.
Never, never neglect it"
Sir Thomas Buxton
"A
prayer, a master act, a king idea can link man's strength
to a transcendent Force."
Aurobindo
"The
key of paradise is prayer, and the key of prayer is ablution."
Prophet Muhammad
"When
the mind and speech unite in earnestly asking for a thing,
that prayer is answered."
Sri Ramakrishna
The
fruit of silence is prayer.
The fruit of prayer is faith.
The fruit of faith is love.
The fruit of love is service.
The fruit of service is peace.
Mother Teresa
"I
offer you peace. I offer you love. I offer you friendship.
I see your beauty. I hear your need. I feel your feelings.
My wisdom flows from the Highest Source. I salute that
Source in you. Let us work together for unity and love."
Gandhi's Prayer For Peace
