By prayer, the ability is secured to feel the law of love, to speak according to the law of love, and to do everything in harmony with the law of love.

Prayer honors God, acknowledges His being, exalts His power, adores His providence, secures His aid.

Heaven is too busy to listen to half-hearted prayers or to respond to pop-calls.

Jesus taught that perseverance is the essential element of prayer. Men must be in earnest when they kneel at God's footstool. Too often we get faint-hearted and quit praying at the point where we ought to begin. We let go at the very point where we should hold on strongest. Our prayers are weak because they are not impassioned by an unfailing and resistless will.

The most important lesson we can learn is how to pray. Prayers do not die, prayers live before God, and God's heart is set on them.

The Church is looking for better methods; God is looking for better men.

It is hard to wait and press and pray, and hear no voice, but stay till God answers.
