We must remember that it was not by interceding for the world in Glory that Jesus saved it. He gave Himself. Our prayers for the evangelization of the world are but a bitter irony so long as we give only of our superfluity, and draw back before the sacrifice of ourselves.
\n\u2014M. Francois Collard.<\/em><\/p>\n

Last night I had a unique experience. I awoke intensely oppressed and as I lay under the dead weight of it, it dawned on me that it meant I was to pray, so I got to work to pray for the men who have just gone off to the fighting line, and in a marvelous way the oppression left and peace ineffable came, and the words emerged, \u201cA house of prayer for all nations.\u201d It is a good thing to stake your confidence on the ground of the perfected Redemption and pray from that basis.
\n\u2014Oswald Chambers.<\/em>

Unwearied may I this pursue,
\nDauntless to the high prize aspire,
\nHourly within my soul renew
\nThis holy flame, this heavenly fire,
\nAnd day and night be all my care
\nTo guard the sacred treasure there.
\n\u2014Paul Gerhardt.<\/em><\/p>\n

Scientists often spend years, sometimes a whole lifetime, in making important scientific discovery. Then how can we expect to discover spiritual beauties by spending only five minutes every day in quiet and prayer? Some people become tired at the end of ten minutes or half an hour of prayer. What would they do when they have to spend Eternity in the presence of God? We must begin the habit here and become used to being with God.\u2014Sadhu Sundar Singh.<\/p>\n
