“The truest lengthening of life is to live while we live, wasting no time but using every hour for the highest ends. So be it this day.”

Charles Spurgeon (1834–1892) British preacher, author, pastor and evangelist

“To pray means to open your hands before God.”

Henri Nouwen (1932–1996) Dutch priest and writer

With Open Hands (1972)
Context: To pray means to open your hands before God. It means slowly relaxing the tension which squeezes your hands together and accepting your existence with an increasing readiness, not as a possession to defend, but as a gift to receive. Above all, prayer is a way of life which allows you to find a stillness in the midst of the world where you open your hands to God’s promises and find hope for yourself, your neighbor and your world. In prayer, you encounter God not only in the small voice and the soft breeze, but also in the midst of the turmoil of the world, in the distress and joy of your neighbor and in the loneliness of your own heart.

“In reality, all religions only pray in the Name of God. Because no one truly knows His Name.”

Mwanandeke Kindembo (1996) Congolese author

“Our first and final task will be to meditate upon the truest name of God.”

Mwanandeke Kindembo (1996) Congolese author

“I put the candy on the desk. So you know, it doesn't matter who you shut your eyes and pray to — to God, or anyone, even our leader — no one will ever give you anything. Only another human being … only I, or someone like me, can give you things. Praying to God or anyone for something is a waste of time.”

James Clavell book The Children's Story

"Teacher"
The Children's Story (1982)

“God is going to supply a million dollars, somebody is praying right now, right this second, you’re praying for a million dollars and God said, "I have heard your prayer, I know your need, and I'm going to supply the need that you requested," it's done, in Jesus' name.”

Pat Robertson (1930) American media mogul, executive chairman, and a former Southern Baptist minister
