Prayer Quotations

"Our prayer must not be self-centered. It must arise not only because we feel our own need as a burden we must lay upon God, but also because we are so bound up in love for our fellow men that we feel their need as acutely as our own. To make intercession for men is the most powerful and practical way in which we can express our love for them." John Calvin

 "We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties." Oswald Chambers

~ I used to think I was poor.  Then they told me I wasn't poor, I was needy.  Then they told me it was self-defeating to think of myself as needy, that I was culturally deprived.  Then they told me deprived was a bad image, that I was underprivileged.  Then they told me underprivileged was overused, that I was disadvantaged.  I still don't have a dime, but I do have a great vocabulary…Jules Feiffer
