Some prayers are followed by silence because they are wrong, others because they are bigger than we can understand.

You can never argue anyone into the Kingdom of Heaven, you cannot argue anyone anywhere. The only result of arguing is to prove to your own mind that you are right and the other fellow wrong.

When I was born again, I received the very life of the risen Lord from Jesus Himself.

Our prayers are heard, not because we are in earnest, not because we suffer, but because Jesus suffered.
