Whatever affects you,--be it a changed look, an altered tone, an unkind word, a wrong, a wound, a demand you cannot meet, a sorrow you cannot disclose,--turn it into prayer and send it up to God.

Disclosures you may not make to man, you can make to the Lord.

Men may be too little for your great matters; God is not too great for your small ones.

Only give yourself to prayer, whatever be the occasion that calls for it." We soon find, however, if we are really earnest, that our desires are too great for words.

We have in our hearts feelings, hungerings, affections, longings, which we want to breathe out to God; but when we begin to speak to him, we find no language adequate for their expression.
