Prayerful Quotes (page 12)

It is unfortunately true that there is in blasphemy a certain outlet which solaces the burdened heart. When an atheist, drawing his watch, gave God a quarter of an hour in which to strike him dead, it is certain that it was a quarter of an hour of wrath and of atrocious joy. It was the paroxysm of despair, a nameless appeal to all celestial powers; it was a poor, wretched creature squirming under the foot that was crushing him; it was a loud cry of pain. Who knows? In the eyes of Him who sees... Alfred de Musset
One foggy night I was walking the dogs down the lane and heard the geese, very close overhead, calling, calling, their marvellous strange cry, as they flew by. I think that is what our own best prayer must sound like when we send it up to heaven. Madeleine L'Engle
C. S. Lewis quote: "For most of us the prayer in Gethsemane is the only model...."
For most of us the prayer in Gethsemane is the only model. Removing mountains can wait. C. S. Lewis
Remember: He WANTS your fellowship, and He has done everything possible to make it a reality. He has forgiven your sins, at the cost of His own dear Son. He has given you His Word, and the priceless privilege of prayer and worship. Billy Graham
Corrie Ten Boom quote: "Is prayer your steering wheel or your spare tire?"
Is prayer your steering wheel or your spare tire? Corrie Ten Boom
It's funny: I always imagined when I was a kid that adults had some kind of inner toolbox full of shiny tools: the saw of discernment, the hammer of wisdom, the sandpaper of patience. But then when I grew up I found that life handed you these rusty bent old tools - friendships, prayer, conscience, honesty - and said 'do the best you can with these, they will have to do'. And mostly, against all odds, they do. Anne Lamott
You'll be found, your nickels, dimes and Indian-heads fused by electroplating. Abe Lincolns melted into Miss Columbias, eagles plucked raw on the backs of quarters, all run to quicksilver in your jeans. More! Any boy hit by lightning, lift his lid and there on his eyeball, pretty as the Lord's Prayer on a pin, find the last scene the boy ever saw! A box-Brownie photo, by God, of that fire climbing down the sky to blow you like a penny whistle, suck your soul back up along the bright stair! Ray Bradbury
I thing that god is always listening to all my prayers. and i have so many dreams in my life. thats why I`m always praying that`s someday I`m going to achieve all my dreams. Oprah Winfrey
Frank Herbert quote: "O you who know what we suffer here, do not forget us in your..."
O you who know what we suffer here, do not forget us in your prayers. Frank Herbert
If he is infinitely good, what reason should we have to fear him? If he is infinitely wise, what doubts should we have concerning our future? If he knows all, why warn him of our needs and fatigue him with our prayers? If he is everywhere, why erect temples to him? If he is just, why fear that he will punish the creatures that he has filled with weaknesses? Percy Bysshe Shelley
I feel that art has something to do with the achievement of stillness in the midst of chaos. A stillness which characterizes prayer, too, and the eye of the storm. I think that art has something to do with an arrest of attention in the midst of distraction. Saul Bellow
Love? Be it man. Be it woman. It must be a wave you want to glide in on, give your body to it, give your laugh to it, give, when the gravelly sand takes you, your tears to the land. To love another is somethinglike prayer and can't be planned, you just fallinto its arms because your belief undoes your disbelief. Anne Sexton
George Eliot quote: "Even when she was speaking, her soul was in prayer reposing on..."
Even when she was speaking, her soul was in prayer reposing on an unseen support. George Eliot

a spiritual life without prayer is like the gospel without Christ. Henri Nouwen
Charles Spurgeon quote: "Groanings which cannot be uttered are often prayers which..."
Groanings which cannot be uttered are often prayers which cannot be refused. Charles Spurgeon
