Prayer is - a means of uniting us unto Himself.

If the Lord is to be Lord, worship must have priority in our lives. The divine priority is worship first, service second.

Fasting reminds us that we are sustained by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matt. 4:4). Food does not sustain us; God sustains us.

When we determine to dwell on the good and excellent things in life, we will be so full of those things that they will tend to swallow our problems.

Because we lack a divine Center our need for security has led us into an insane attachment to things.

In the context of Quaker worship, it is perfectly appropriate for any person in the congregation to speak a timely word from the Lord.

Our God is not made of stone. His heart is the most sensitive and tender of all. No act goes unnoticed, no matter how insignificant or small. A cup of cold water is enough to put tears in the eyes of God. God celebrates our feeble expressions of gratitude.
