Faith, Prayer and His Presence

 
However strong the branch becomes,
 however far away it reaches round the home,
out of sight of the vine,
 all its beauty and all its fruitfulness ever depend
 upon that one point of contact
 where it grows out of the vine.
 So be it with us too.”
―    Andrew Murray
 
 
 
I need to spend time with God
 even when I do not know what to pray.”
―     Andrew Murray
 
 
And faith can only grow by exercise,
 can only thrive in trial:
 when visible things fail,
 its energy is roused to yield itself
to be possessed by
 the Invisible,
 by the Divine.”
―     Andrew Murray
 
 
 
“The entrance His words find with me,
 will be the measure of the power of any words with Him.”
―     Andrew Murray
 
 
“The great thing in prayer
 is to feel that we are putting our supplications
 into the bosom of omnipotent love.”
―     Andrew Murray
 
 
In His Love,
Deborah
