4066. Prayer is asking for rain, and faith is carrying the umbrella.
4067. No man who is selfish, cynical, and superficial on his feet is ever a saint on his knees.
4068. You can expect God to intervene when you have taken time to intercede.
4069. There is no time lost in waiting if you are waiting on the Lord.
4070. Keep a secret and it is yours; tell it to God and it’s prayer; tell it to people and it’s gossip.
