“Love descends upon our souls by the will of God and not by the demand or the plea of the individual.”
“Prayer is the key that opens heaven; the favors we ask descend upon us the very instant our prayers ascend to God.”
“I believe in God, and I love my brother. But I don't want any religion that will demand I lose my individuality.”
“Financial demands, of all the rough winds that blow upon our love, (are) quite the coldest and the most biting.”
“God's love descends on some like dew on a flower, blessed be He, but sometimes we trudge along our comfortable lives and bam, He descends on us like a splash of gasoline... and then He strikes a match.”
“To love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, and our neighbor as ourself.”
