Our prayers are only as powerful as our lives. In the long pull we pray only as well as we live. (A.W. Tozer)

Much of our praying is just asking God to bless some folks that are ill and to keep us plugging along. But prayer is not merely prattle: it is warfare. (Alan Redpath)

More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of. (Alfred, Lord Tennyson)

Is prayer your steering wheel or your spare tire? (Corrie Ten Boom)

God never ceases to speak to us, but the noise of the world without and the tumult of our passions within bewilder us and prevent us from listening to him. (Francois Fenelon)
