Erzbischof Fulton Sheen über das Beten

Ein paar interessante Gedanken von Erzbischof Fulton J. Sheen über das Beten:

"Millions and millions of favors are hanging from heaven on silken cords, and prayer is the sword that cuts them."

"When people complain that their prayers are not heard by God, what often has happened is that they did not wait to hear God´s answer..."

"... One can be impolite to God, too, by absorbing all the conversation, and by changing the words of Scripture from 'Speak, Lord, Thy servant hears' to 'Listen, Lord, Thy servant speaks.'"
