Famous Quotes about prayer

D.E. Stevenson quote #157 from The Young Clementina

Prayer did not come easily to me for I always feel that prayer is a silent things and opening of the heart. To ask for earthly benefits to reel out a list of requirements and expect them to be supplied is not prayer. It is putting God in the same category as an intelligent grocer.

Henri J.M. Nouwen quote #367 from The Way of the Heart: Desert Spirituality and Contemporary Ministry

For many of us prayer means nothing more than speaking with God. And since it usually seems to be a quite one-sided affair prayer simply means talking to God. This idea is enough to create great frustrations. If I present a problem I expect a solution if I formulate a question I expect an answer if I ask for guidance I expect a response. And when it seems increasingly that I am talking into the dark it is not so strange that I soon begin to suspect that my dialogue with God is in fact a monologue. Then I may begin to ask myself To whom am I really speaking God or myself

Vera Nazarian quote #127 from Cobweb Forest

Know child that the One GodHe is so vast that He cannot be moved else the Universe falls. Nor can He answer for the very act of opening His Mouth is Movement indeed the greatest Act of all for it is the Word. And this is precisely why He has made an infinity of lesser gods creating them in His own image so that we can do the lesser things on His behalf. We are His hands and arms and feet and mouths. We are His answers to your prayers enacted along the great Framework of Being.
