Experience teaches us that we do not always receive the blessings we ask for in prayer.

All my work, all my efforts, all my prayers and tears are for humanity, and the spread of peace and love among mankind.

True prayer is not asking God for love; it is learning to love, and to include all mankind in one affection.

Consistent prayer is the desire to do right.

The prayer that reforms the sinner and heals the sick is an absolute faith that all things are possible to God ...

What we most need is the prayer of fervent desire for growth in grace, expressed in patience, meekness, love, and good deeds.
