Prayer Quotes

Prayer is thinking and thanking. It is thinking of our many blessings and accepting them with a thankful spirit Picture Quote #1

The secret prayer chamber is a bloody battleground. Here violent and decisive battles are fought out. Here the fate of souls for time and eternity is determined, in quietude and solitude Picture Quote #1

Everyone longs to be free. Freedom is our essential nature, so my ultimate prayer is that the world is set free to experience the truth and the beauty of our own being Picture Quote #1

Prayer is the best answer to all of the trials that face us, because without prayer, even if we succeed in accomplishing some great goal in the eyes of men, we have failed in our sacred responsibilities, and thus we have failed in what is truly important Picture Quote #1

In prayer I was exceedingly enlarged, and my soul was as much drawn out as I ever remember it to have been in my life. I was in such anguish, and pleaded with so much earnestness and importunity, that when I rose from my knees I felt extremely weak and overcome; I could scarce walk straight; my joints were loosed; the sweat ran down my face and body; and nature seemed as if it would dissolve Picture Quote #1

It isn’t a coincidence that prayer was commanded right after the year of sadness. The prayer was the greatest comfort Picture Quote #1

The picture is like a prayer, an offering, and hopefully an opening through which to seek what we don’t know, or already know and should take seriously Picture Quote #1

To each his own way and his own prayer. God does not take us at our word. He looks deep into our hearts. It is not the ceremonies or rituals that make a difference, but whether our hearts are sufficiently pure or not Picture Quote #1

Only in prayer do we achieve that complete and harmonious assembly of body, mind, and spirit which gives the frail human reed its unshakable strength Picture Quote #1

If something controls you in a way that puzzles you, think of it as a mystery. Mysteries are best approached by closing your eyes and mouth to experience darkness and silence. I find new and healing images in that dark, silent place away from emotions that control me. Do not be afraid to close your eyes and be silent in prayer, meditation, rest or sleep. In those states you may rediscover a new self. Then your life, time and thoughts will become yours again and you can live your unique myth Picture Quote #1

Prayer, the basic exercise of the spirit, must be actively practiced in our private lives. The neglected soul of the human being must be made strong enough to assert itself once more. For if the power of prayer is again released and used in the lives of common men and women; if the spirit declares its aims clearly and boldly, there is yet hope that our prayers for a better world will be answered Picture Quote #1

I never went to bed in my life and I never ate a meal in my life without saying a prayer. I know my prayers have been answered thousands of times, and I know that I never said a prayer in my life without something good coming of it Picture Quote #1

Prayer is a means of sharing the burden, which relieves pressure, as you tell your worries and concerns to someone who will listen and won’t judge, no matter what you say. Praying is like handing the problem over to someone else as you talk it out. Then you can tune in for guidance and a different perspective that will exude heartfelt energy. When you pray, you are exposing your real self and extending sincere, loving energy to yourself. It doesn’t matter if your words are fancy or plain, and there is no way to do it right or wrong. Prayer is about opening your heart and being sincere Picture Quote #1

The journey of prayer is nothing more or less than a gradual awakening to the reality of recognizing what is already there Picture Quote #1

Prayer is not a way to get what we want to happen, like the remote control that comes with the television set. I think that prayer may be less about asking for the things we are attached to than it is about relinquishing our attachments in some way. It can take us beyond fear, which is an attachment, and beyond hope, which is another form of attachment. It can help us remember the nature of the world and the nature of life, not on an intellectual level but in a deep and experiential way. When we pray, we don’t change the world, we change ourselves. We change our consciousness Picture Quote #1

Government sponsorship of religious activity, including prayer services, sacred symbols, religious festivals, and the like, tends to secularize the religious activity rather than make government more ethical or religious Picture Quote #1

The trappings of a religious cult tend to fall into candlelit ceremonies and robes and group chanting and singing and prayer Picture Quote #1

I remember being at school during morning meeting and looking around at everybody, 350 kids, saying a prayer. We’re all very young and no one knows what it means, and I remember feeling strange that people were just repeating words that they didn’t understand. I refused to participate. For some reason I always rejected it, but respectfully Picture Quote #1

I believe above the storm, the smallest prayer will still be heard. I believe that someone in that great somewhere hears every word Picture Quote #1

After much thought and prayer, I have come to my own personal conclusion that we shouldn’t tell people who they can love or who they can marry Picture Quote #1

I like the monastic life... in the prayer and the praising... this has charged me with new energy, spiritual energy. This is very important for my ministry outside the monastery Picture Quote #1

A soul which gives itself to prayer, either much or little, should on no account be kept within narrow bounds Picture Quote #1

I don’t know what heavy penance I would not have gladly undertaken rather than practice prayer Picture Quote #1

Prayer is an act of love; words are not needed. Even if sickness distracts from thoughts, all that is needed is the will to love Picture Quote #1

My suggestion to newspapers everywhere is to give the public a reason to read them again. So here’s an idea: get on a big story with widespread public appeal, devote your best resources to it, say a quiet prayer, and swing for the fences Picture Quote #1

To sweat is to pray, to make an offering of your innermost self. Sweat is holy water, prayer beads, pearls of liquid that release your past. Sweat is an ancient and universal form of self healing, whether done in the gym, the sauna, or the sweat lodge. I do it on the dance floor. The more you dance, the more you sweat. The more you sweat, the more you pray. The more you pray, the closer you come to ecstasy Picture Quote #1

Work for God, love God alone, and be wise with God. When an ordinary man puts the necessary rime and enthusiasm into meditation and prayer, he becomes a divine man Picture Quote #1

Prayer is the breath of your life which gives you the freedom to go and stay where you wish and to find the many signs which point out the way to a new land Picture Quote #1

The devil is in constant conspiracy against a preacher who really prays, for it has been said that what a minister is in his prayer closet is what he is, no more, no less Picture Quote #1

Prayer means that, in some unique way, we believe we’re invited into a relationship with someone who hears us when we speak in silence Picture Quote #1
