Prayer changes things? No! Prayer changes people, and people change things.
In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
Don't pray when you feel like it. Have an appointment with the Lord and keep it.
I used to believe that prayer changes things, but now I know that prayer changes us, and we change things.
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul.
Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.
Prayer may not change things for you, but it for sure changes you for things.
He who has learned to pray has learned the greatest secret of a holy and happy life.
There has never been a spiritual awakening in any country or locality that did not begin in united prayer.
I went from a D all the way to an A plus, I tell you prayer changes things.
More things are wrought by prayer than this world dreams of.
God, give me grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed.
Our prayers lay the track down which God's power can come.
Our prayers lay the track down which Gods power can come. Like a mighty locomotive, his power is irresistible, but it cannot reach us without rails.
Those persons who know the deep peace of God, the unfathomable peace that passeth all understanding, are always men and women of much prayer.
The men who have done the most for God in this world have been early on their knees. He who fritters away the early morning, its opportunity and freshness, in other pursuits than seeking God will make poor headway seeking Him the rest of the day. If God is not first in our thoughts and efforts in the morning, He will be in the last place the remainder of the day.
The most important thing a born again Christian can do is to pray.
If the only prayer you ever say in your entire life is thank you, it will be enough.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; enjoying one moment at a time; accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever in the next. Amen.
