Temptation provokes me to look upward to God.

Prayer is a sincere, sensible, affectionate pouring out of the soul to God, through Christ, in the strength and assistance of the Spirit, for such things as God has promised.

The man that takes up religion for the world will throw away religion for the world.

Prayer is an ordinance of God, that must continue with a soul so long as it is on this side glory.

The truths that I know best I have learned on my knees. I never know a thing well, till it is burned into my heart by prayer.

Humility is the light of the understanding.

It is the opener of the heart of God, and a means by which the soul, though empty, is filled.
