THOUGHTS ON PRAYER - 2

.












Prayer is when you talk to God;
meditation is when you listen to God.
*
Diana Robinson
.
In prayer it is better to have a heart without words
than words without a heart.
*
Mahatma Gandhi
.
Pray as though everything depended on God.
Work as though everything depended on you.
*
Saint Augustine
.
Most people do not pray; they only beg.
*
George Bernard Shaw
.
Many people pray as if God were a big aspirin pill;
they come only when they hurt.
*
B. Graham Dienert
.
I have had prayers answered -
most strangely so sometimes -
but I think our heavenly Father's loving-kindness
has been even more evident in what he has refused me.
*
Lewis Carroll
.
Do not pray for easy lives.
Pray to be stronger men!
Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers.
Pray for power equal to your tasks.
*
Phillip Brooks
