“Let thy power be a prayer.”— Lailah Gifty Akita Related Quotes “When the past has taught us that we have more within us than we have ever used our prayer is a cry to the divine to come to us and fill us with its power.”— Rudolph Steiner “But if you love and must needs have desires, let these be your desires:To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night.To know the pain of too much tenderness.To be wounded by your own understanding of love;And to bleed willingly and joyfully.To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving;To rest at noon hour and meditate love’s ecstasy;To return home at eventide with gratitude;And then to sleep with a prayer for the beloved in your heart and a song of praise on your lips.”— Kahlil Gibran “Prayer at its highest is a two-way conversation-and for me the most important part is listening to God’s replies.”— Frank C. Laubach
