-
God wants us to pray, and he wants to hear our prayers-not because we are worthy, but because he is merciful.
MARTIN LUTHER -
The kingdom of God does not consist in talk, but in power, that is, in works and practice. God loves the ‘doers of the word’ in faith and love, and not the ‘mere hearers,’ who, like parrots, have learned to utter certain expressions with readiness.
MARTIN LUTHER -
Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.
MARTIN LUTHER -
He who loves not women, wine, and song Remains a fool his whole life long.
MARTIN LUTHER -

MARTIN LUTHER -
Pray, and let God worry.
MARTIN LUTHER -

MARTIN LUTHER -
The Law is for the proud and the Gospel for the brokenhearted.

MARTIN LUTHER -
This grace of God is a very great, strong, mighty and active thing. It does not lie asleep in the soul. Grace hears, leads, drives, draws, changes, works all in man, and lets itself be distinctly felt and experienced. It is hidden, but its works are evident.
