Some prayers are followed by silence because they are wrong, others because they are bigger than we can understand. (Oswald Chambers, Prayer A Holy Occupation, p. 149)

Illusion or Reality


Is my spiritual life more of an illusion than a reality? Am I more concerned about making a favorable impression on others than I am about being truly spiritual? (Found in Prayer A Holy Occupation by Oswald Chambers - probably not a quote of Oswald Chambers, p. 64)

Negative Thoughts


Father, when a negative thought floods my mind, bless me to let its energy pass through without focusing on it, feeding it, and giving it greater energy to control my life. Thank you for teaching me how to direct my thoughts in creating loving realities which increase my inner peace and joy. (Betty J. Eadie, Embraced By The Light, 6 May)

When Things Are Bad


When things are bad, we take comfort in the thought that they could always be worse. And when they are, we find hope in the thought that things are so bad they have to get better. (Malcom S. Forbes)

The Old Days


It is of no use to pray for the old days; stand square where you are and make the present better than any past has been. (Oswald Chambers, Prayer A Holy Occupation, p. 141)
