“God uses people to help others. I only pray my faith is strong enough to get me through what I have to face.”

“My past is what God expects me to use to help others through their present.”

“That's what gets me through the day. Knowing that I could do it. That I'm strong enough to do it and I can get it done.”

“I pray to God to give me perseverance and to deign that I be a faithful witness to Him to the end of my life for my God.”

“A Warrior’s Pledge of PurityBy Jason Lee MorganI will have faith that God empowers me for purityI will have faith that God has something betterI will be encouraged by Your faithfulnessI will sharpen my sword today for purityI will meditate on purity throughout my dayI will strategize for victory, rather than brace for defeatI will outline the known of my dayThat I may prepare for the pitfalls to comeAnd preemptively guard against what is knownI will pray before I enter battleI will pray for protectionI will pray for wisdomI will pray for strengthI will pray for miracles if need be!I will take my stand by way of escapeAs a coward I shall be in the face of impurityOnly my back shall it seeI will bear the strange appearance of downward eyesThat no impure image be stamped within me I will go out of my way to avoid the face of impurityI will hurt the feelings of others if need be, to preserve my purity before YouI will not long for the past, but dwell on what is pureI will not place others above You as my reason for purityI will recall Your holiness dailyI will love You with Christ-like loveAnd sacrifice what is necessary to glorify YouI will recite this daily, that I do not forget Thee”

“Maybe I was praying for him then, in my own way. Does God have a set way of prayer, a way that He expects each of us to follow? I doubt it. I believe some people-- lots of people-- pray through the witness of their lives, through the work they do, the friendships they have, the love they offer people and receive from people. Since when are words the only acceptable form of prayer?”
