RELATED QUOTES AND NOTES:

– In prayer, it is better to have a heart without words—than words without a heart.

– The reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things—is that they are contented with what comes from man’s mouth, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things.

John Bunyan

The morning is the gate of the day and should be well guarded with prayer.

C.H. Spurgeon
