Let everyone try and find that as a result of daily prayer he adds something new to his life, something with which nothing can be compared.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Prayer doesn't just change things - it changes us. If we are diligent in seeking God, slowly and surely we become better people.
He who has learned to pray has learned the greatest secret of a holy and happy life.
Prayer gives a man the opportunity of getting to know a gentleman he hardly ever meets. I do not mean his maker, but himself.
I think one thing is that prayer has become more useful, interesting, fruitful, and... almost involuntary in my life.
Our prayers can and should be focused on the practical, everyday struggles of life.
Prayer does not change God, but it changes him who prays.
Prayer becomes more meaningful as we counsel with the Lord in all of our doings, as we express heartfelt gratitude, and as we pray for others.
Every one should find some suitable time, day or night, to sink into his depths, each according to his own fashion. Not every one is able to engage in contemplative prayer.
It is clear that he does not pray, who, far from uplifting himself to God, requires that God shall lower Himself to him, and who resorts to prayer not to stir the man in us to will what God wills, but only to persuade God to will what the man in us wills.
Prayer is simply talking to God like a friend and should be the easiest thing we do each day.
