I love to observe Christmas in quietude, humility, benevolence, charity, letting good will towards man, eloquent silence, prayer, and praise express my conception of Truth’s appearing.
True prayer is not asking God for love; it is learning to love, and to include all mankind in one affection.
What we most need is the prayer of fervent desire for growth in grace, expressed in patience, meekness, love, and good deeds.
Consistent prayer is the desire to do right.
Audible prayer can never do the works of spiritual understanding, which regenerates; but silent prayer, watchfulness, and devout obedience enable us to follow Jesus example. Long prayers, superstition, and creeds clip the strong pinions of love, and clothe religion in human forms. Whatever materializes worship hinders man's spiritual growth and keeps him from demonstrating his power over error.
Experience teaches us that we do not always receive the blessings we ask for in prayer.
Prayer is not to be used as a confessional, to cancel sin. Such an error would impede true religion. Sin is forgiven only as it is destroyed by Christ - Truth and Light.
The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the sick is an absolute faith that all things are possible to God.
All my work, all my efforts, all my prayers and tears are for humanity, and the spread of peace and love among mankind.
