Prayer, a translation...
Prayer is translation. A man
translates himself into a child asking for all there is in a language he has
barely mastered ~ Leonard Cohen
God warms his hands at man’s heart
when he prays ~ John Masefield
We waste most of our time trying to get God to
do something he has already done, or praying for God to do something he told us
to do ~ Jacquelyn K. Heasley
Work as if you were to live a hundred years.
Pray as if you were to die tomorrow ~ Benjamin Franklin
Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to
be stronger men. Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers
equal to your tasks ~ Phillips Brooks
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 ~ Mahatma Gandhi
Our prayers should be for blessings in general, for God knows best what is good for us ~ Socrates
The function of prayer is not to influence God,
but rather to change the nature of the one who prays ~ Soren Kierkegaard
Wow! As usual your pictures are good, but more than that I liked the thought and concept behind it.
ReplyDeletePowerful, faithful and grace filled images of conversation with the Almighty..!!
ReplyDeleteTrue, we don't pray to inform God but to invite him into our lives and to work together with Him..
He uses prayer to grow us and even taught how to pray..!
