Is God more Likely To Do Something If More People Are Praying ?

Prayer

"Lord, take as your right, and receive as my gift,all my freedom, my memory,my understanding and my will.Whatever I am and whatever I possess,you have given to me;I restore it all to you again,to be at your disposal,according to your will.Give me only a love for you, and the gift of your grace; then I am rich enough,and ask for nothing more."

-- Ignatius of Loyola (1491 - 1556)

Godliness

The godly man lives in the presence of God and in such place recognises his many weaknesses which leads him to his knees to pray so that he may not be a hypocrite.

Prayer

Lord,

I bring

the poverty of my soul to be transformed by your beauty;

the wildness of my passions to be tamed by your love;

the stubbornness of my will to be conformed to your commandments

and the yearnings of my heart to be renewed by your grace;

both now and for ever.

Amen

Catherine of Genoa, 1447-1510
