Happiness Depends On What Happens; Joy Does

To Wait Is Not To Sit With Folded Hands, But To Learn To Do What We Are Told.

Our Lord Never Referred To Unanswered Prayer. He Taught That Prayers Are Always Answered: “everyone Who Asks Receives”. And He Implied That Prayers Are Answered Rightly Because Of The Heavenly Father's Wisdom: “your Father Knows The Things You Have Need Of Before You Ask Him”.

The Real Attitude Of Sin In The Heart Towards God Is That Of Being Without God; It Is Pride, The Worship Of Myself, That Is The Great Atheistic Fact In Human Life.

Prayer Is The Way The Life Of God Is Nourished.

Am I As Spontaneously Kind To God As I Used To Be, Or Am I Only Expecting God To Be Kind To Me? Am I Full Of The Little Things That Cheer His Heart Over Me, Or Am I Whimpering Because Things Are Going Hardly With Me? There Is No Joy In The Soul That Has Forgotten What God Prizes.
