“Every day you attach the hopes and dreams of your heart- your satisfaction and your joy- to something. Every day you look to something to give your life. Every day, you give your life to something with the hope that it will give you peace and joy. Every day, you attach your identity to something, and there are only two places to look. You’re either looking for life in the creation and are on your way to crushing disappointment, or you’re looking to the Creator and are on your way to lasting peace.” -Paul David Tripp

“The ability to calm your soul and wait before God is one of the most difficult things in the Christian life. Our old nature is restless… the world around us is frantically in a hurry. But a restless heart usually leads to a reckless life.” -Warren W. Wiersby

“Short prayers are long enough.” Charles Spurgeon

“Prayer is the weapon for which the devil has no response.” -Dr. David Jeremiah
