The root-trouble of the present distress is that the Church has more faith in the world and the flesh than in the Holy Ghost.
Samuel ChadwickIn these days there is no time to pray; but without time, and a lot of it, we shall never learn to pray.
Samuel ChadwickThe Church is the Body of Christ, and the Spirit is the Spirit of Christ. He fills the Body, directs its movements, controls its members, inspires its wisdom, supplies it's strength. He guides into truth, sanctifies its agents, and empowers for witnessing. The Spirit has never abdicated His authority nor relegated His power.
Samuel ChadwickThere is no way of learning to pray but by praying. No reasoned philosophy of prayer ever taught a soul to pray. We know not what we should pray for as we ought, and if prayer waits for understanding it will never begin. We discover by using. We learn by practice. Though a man should have all knowledge about prayer, and though he should understand all mysteries about prayer, unless he prays he will never learn to pray.
