That’s Where I Want to Be
Pray without Ceasing
Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge to Satan.

A Christmas Prayer by Robert Louis Stevenson
Loving Father, Help us remember the birth of Jesus, that we may share in the song of angels, the gladness of the shepherds, and the worship of the wise men. Close the door of hate and open the door of love all over the world. Let kindness come with every gift and good desires with every greeting.
Deliver us from evil by the blessing which Christ brings, and teach us to be merry with clean hearts. May the Christmas morning make us happy to be Thy children, and the Christmas evening bring us to our beds with grateful thoughts, forgiving and forgiven, for Jesus’ sake, Amen!
Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894)

Don’t Pray Useless Prayers
When thou prayest, rather let thy heart be without words, than thy words without a heart.

The Only Reason Our Prayers Are Heard and Answered
Our prayers are heard, not because we are in earnest, not because we suffer, but because Jesus suffered.

None Can Believe How Powerful Prayer Is
None can believe how powerful prayer is, and what it is able to effect, but those who have learned it by experience. It is a great matter when in extreme need to take hold on prayer. I know, whenever I have prayed earnestly that I have been amply heard, and have obtained more than I prayed for. God indeed sometimes delayed, but at last He came.
What You Can Do When You Don’t Know What to Do
When I cannot read, when I cannot think, when I cannot even pray, I can trust.

Prepared for Prayer
None duly prepare themselves for prayer but those who are impressed with the majesty of God.

Prayer Is the Christian’s Vital Breath
As our body cannot live without nourishment, so our soul cannot spiritually be kept alive without prayer.
