To pray rightly, you must make God your hope, stay, and all. Right prayer sees nothing substantial or worth being concerned about except God.
Knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
The life blood streaming thro' my heart, Or my more dear immortal part, Is not more fondly dear.
He who runs from God in the morning will scarcely find Him the rest of the day.
Thou art beaten that thou mayest be better.
The same yesterday, today, and forever.
