"The effective prayer of faith comes from a life given up to the will and the love of God. Not as a result of what I try to be when praying, but because of what I am when I’m not praying, is my prayer answered by God." – Andrew Murray in With Christ in the School of Prayer
"Many “sophisticated” political and social commentators complain that issues like school prayer are “distractions” having nothing to do with today’s most pressing issues. What they fail to recognize is that a people’s faith is intertwined with the issues of the day." – William J. Bennett, former secretary of education, in The De-Valuing of America
"I am often, I believe, praying for others when I should be doing things for them. It’s so much easier to pray for a bore than to go and see him. – C. S. Lewis in Letters to Malcolm
Peter Marshall prayed, “Forgive us for thinking that prayer is a waste of time, and help us to see that without prayer, our work is a waste of time.”
