The simple fact is that the World is too busy to give the Holy Spirit a chance to enter in.

Prayer is not a way of making use of God; prayer is a way of offering ourselves to God in order that He should be able to make use of us.

Pride is the ground in which all the other sins grow, and the parent from which all the other sins come.

Faith in God is the instrument which enables men and women to remove the hills of difficulty which block their path.

It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.

We are chosen for joy. However hard the Christian way, it is both in the traveling and in the goal, the way of joy.

There are two great days in a person's life - the day we are born and the day we discover why.
