Who knows what prayers offered in faith by those who have gone before us are yet unanswered.
-Iain Murray
We have to get into the habit of carefully listening to God about everything, forming the habit of finding out what He says and heeding it. If, when a crisis comes, we instinctively turn to God, we will know that the habit has been formed in us.
-Oswald Chambers
My Utmost for His Highest
Retreating from the world, many Christians seek cover inside their church buildings, wagging their fingers at the "secular ownership" of the social landscape and receiving petty satisfaction in saying, "This little part still belongs to us."
-Ravi Zacharias
Deliver Us From Evil
"There is nothing, no circumstance, no trouble, no testing that can ever touch me until, first of all, it has come past God and past Christ, right through to me. If it has come that far, it has come with a great purpose."
-Alan Redpath
"Aim at heaven and you will get
earth thrown in. Aim at earth
and you get neither. "
C.S. Lewis
Mere Christianity
"God is interested in your prayers because he is interested in you."
Bill Hybels
Too Busy Not To Pray
"Deep silence leads us to realize that prayer is, above all, acceptance."
Henri J.M. Nouwen
With Open Hands
"No matter how thoroughly the devil messes up a life - no matter how early in childhood he starts - God can take back this stolen property."
