If we know how to pray, we know how to live.

The moral laws of the Universe are deeply embedded in the constitution of things. We do not break them - we break ourselves upon them.

When prayer fades out, power fades out. We are as spiritual as we are prayerful; no more, no less.

To pass from estrangement from God to be a son of God is the basic fact of conversion. That altered relationship with God gives you an altered relationship with yourself, with your brother man, with nature, with the universe.

The opponent strikes you on your cheek, and you strike him on the heart by your amazing spiritual audacity in turning the other cheek. You wrest the offensive from him by refusing to take his weapons, by keeping your own, and by striking him in his conscience from a higher level. He hits you physically, and you hit him spiritually.

We find, sooner or later, that in prayer we either abandon ourselves or we abandon prayer.

At the cross God wrapped his heart in flesh and blood and let it be nailed to the cross for our redemption.
