Prayer at its highest is a two-way conversation - and for me the most important part is listening to God's replies.

If you are weary of some sleepy form of devotion, probably God is as weary of it as you are.

I choose to look at people through God, using God as my glasses, colored with His love for them.

God, I want to give You every minute of this year. I shall try to keep You in mind every moment of my waking hours....I shall try to let You be the speaker and direct every word. I shall try to let You direct my acts. I shall try to learn Your language.

The simple program of Christ for winning the whole world is to make each person he touches magnetic enough with love to draw others.

There is no defeat unless one loses God, and then all is defeat, though it be housed in castles and buried in fortunes.

But this year I have started out trying to live all my waking moments in conscious listening to the inner voice, asking without ceasing, 'What, Father, do you desire said? What, Father, do you desire done this minute?'
