The dearest friend on earth is a mere shadow compared with Jesus Christ.

Oswald Chambers

To say that ‘prayer changes things’ is not as close to the truth as saying, ‘prayer changes me and then I change things.’ God has established things so that prayer, on the basis of redemption, changes the way a person looks at things.
OSWALD CHAMBERS
