Prayer doesn't change things - God changes things in answer to prayer.

It is faith alone that justifies, but faith that justifies can never be alone.

Integrity is the best of all protectors...we cannot be more secure than when fortified by a good conscience.

Prayer unaccompanied by perseverance leads to no result.

Nothing, including human suffering, happens by chance.

Only those who have learned well to be earnestly dissatisfied with themselves, and to be confounded with shame at their wretchedness truly understand the Christian gospel.
