Oh! yes, (the prayer meeting) is the place to meet with the Holy Ghost, and this is the way to get His mighty power. If we would have Him, we must meet in greater numbers; we must pray with greater fervency, we must watch with greater earnestness, and believe with firmer steadfastness. The prayer meeting...is the appointed place for the reception of power.

Let your thoughts be psalms, your prayers incense, and your breath praise.

Children will imitate their fathers in their vices, seldom in their repentance.

Let your tears fall because of sin, but, at the same time, let the eye of faith steadily behold the Son of man.

A day hemmed in prayer is less likely to unravel.

May your convictions be deep, your love real, and your desires earnest

Do you resolve to do the right and to love the true, depend upon it you will get no assistance from this world. Of its maxims, nine out of ten are false, and the other one selfish; and even that which is selfish has a lie at the bottom of it.
