In prayer, it is better to have heart without words, than words without heart. Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin entice a man to cease from prayer. The spirit of prayer is more precious than treasures of gold and silver. Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan.

Yet my great-grandfather was but a water-man, looking one way and rowing another: and I got most of my estate by the same occupation.
John Bunyan
Image
The difference between true and false repentance lies in this: the man who truly repents cries out against his heart but the other, as Eve, against the serpent, or something else.
John Bunyan
Image
The heart must be beaten or bruised, and then the sweet scent will come out.
John Bunyan

The best prayer I ever prayed had enough sin to damn the whole world.
