As is the business of tailors to make clothes and cobblers to make shoes, so it is the business of Christians to pray.
Martin LutherIt is not I that smite, stab, and slay, but God and my prince, for my hand and my body are now their servants.
Martin LutherGod is ready to give more quickly, and to give more than you ask; yea, he offers his treasures if we only take them. It is truly a great shame and a severe chastisement for us Christians that God should still upbraid us for our slothfulness in prayer, and that we fail to let such a rich and excellent promise incite us to pray.
Martin Luther
