Prayer is one of the necessary wheels of the machinery of providence.

Prayers are heard in heaven in proportion to our faith. Little faith gets very great mercies, but great faith still greater.

Backsliders begin with dusty Bibles and end with filthy garments.

I am ashamed of some christians because they have so much dependence on Parliment and the law of the land. Much good may Parliment ever do to true religion except by mistake! As to getting the law of the land to touch our religion, we earnestly cry, `Hands off! Leave us alone.' Your Sunday bills and all other forms of the act-of-Parliment religion seem to me to be all wrong. Give us a fair field and no favor, and our faith has no cause to fear. Christ wants no help from Caesar.

The Providence of God is the great protector of our life and usefulness, and under the divine care we are perfectly safe from danger.
