MY PRAYER

GetFriday — Sun, 21 Feb 2010 16:00:27 +0000

Lord Jesus, make Thyself to me
A living, bright reality;
More present to faith’s vision keen
Than any outward object seen;
More dear, more intimately nigh
Than e’en the sweetest earthly tie.

There is a democracy in this matter. We may differ among ourselves as to our wealth, as to our social position, as to our educational equipment, as to native ability, as to our inherited charcteristics; but in the matter of exercising the greatest force that is at work in the world today, we are on the same footing.
-John R. Mott.

Prayer is the greatest force that we can wield. It is the greatest talent which God has given us.

There is a bridge, whereof the span
Is rooted in the heart of man, And reaches, without pile or rod,
Unto the great white Throne of God.
Its traffic is in human sighs,
Fervently wafted to the skies;
‘Tis the one path from despair,
And it is called the bridge of prayer.
-Gilbert Thomas.

trust in God…

Put then thy trust in God.
In duty’s path go on.
Fix on His word thy steadfast eye
So shall thy work be done.
No profit canst thou gain
By self-consuming care.
To Him commend thy cause
His ear attends thy softest prayer.

Prayer is the opening of a window towards God.

IF
If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don’t;
If you’d like to win but think you can’t,
It’s certain that you won’t.

If you think you’ll lose, you’ve lost,
For out of the world we find
Success begins with a fellow’s will;
It’s all in the state of mind.

Life’s battles don’t always go
To the strongest and fastest man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.
