Ideals are like tuning forks: sound them often to bring your life up to standard pitch.

Prayer wonderfully clears the vision; steadies the nerves; defines duty; stiffens the purpose; sweetens and strengthens the spirit.

You can do more than pray after you have prayed, but you cannot do more than pray until you have prayed.

Faith is blind...to impossibilities and deaf to doubt. It listens only to God.

Prayer does not influence God. Prayer surely does influence God. It does not influence His purpose. It does influence His action.

The men who seem to know most of God's power have had great, unspeakable longings, at times, for a fresh consciousness of that power.

One should never initiate anything that he cannot saturate with prayer.
