Quote by Phillips Brooks

Pray the largest prayers. You cannot think a prayer so large that God, in answering it, will not wish you had made it larger. Pray not for crutches but for wings.

Pray the largest prayers. You cannot think a prayer so large

Summary

This quote emphasizes the significance of having big hopes and dreams when it comes to prayer. The idea is to not limit ourselves with small and attainable prayers, but instead aim for prayers that push the boundaries of what we believe is possible. It encourages us to seek divine intervention for things that seem beyond our reach, rather than settling for quick fixes or temporary solutions. By praying for wings instead of crutches, we are encouraged to seek divine empowerment and possibilities that surpass our own limitations.

He smiled his shy smile at her as he went into the yard. Anne took the memory of it with her when she went to her room that night and sat for a long while at her open window, thinking of the past and dreaming of the future. Outside the Snow Queen was mistily white in the moonshine; the frogs were singing in the marsh beyond Orchard Slope. Anne always remembered the silvery, peaceful beauty and fragrant calm of that night. It was the last night before sorrow touched her life; and no life is ever quite the same again when once that cold, sanctifying touch has been laid upon it.
