We think rightly or wrongly about prayer according to the conception we have in our minds of prayer. If we think of prayer as the breath in our lungs and the blood from our hearts, we think rightly. The blood flows ceaselessly, and breathing continues ceaselessly; we are not conscious of it, but it is always going on. We are not always conscious of Jesus keeping us in perfect joint with God, but if we are obeying Him, He always is.

Reflected peace is the proof that you are right with God because you are at liberty to turn your mind to Him.

The real attitude of sin in the heart towards God is that of being without God; it is pride, the worship of myself, that is the great atheistic fact in human life.

God cannot reveal anything to us if we have not His spirit.

If we were never depressed we should not be alive; it is the nature of a crystal never to be depressed.

There is no need to get to a place of prayer; pray wherever you are.

No healthy Christian ever chooses suffering; he chooses God's will, as Jesus did, whether it means suffering or not.
