Prayer Quote of the Day

“No man [or women] is greater than his [her] prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. We have many organisers, but few agonisers; many players and payers, few pray-ers ... Failing here, we fail everywhere.”

Leonard Ravenhil (1907-94)

Evangelist and Author

Prayer Bible Verse of the Day

“And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.”

John 14:13 (NIV)

Prayer of the Day

Thanks for Creation

O God, I thank thee
for all the creatures thou hast made,
so perfect in their kind—
great animals like the elephant and the rhinoceros,
humorous animals like the camel and the monkey,
friendly ones like the dog and the cat,
working ones like the horse and the ox,
timid ones like the squirrel and the rabbit,
majestic ones like the lion and the tiger,
for birds with their songs.
O Lord give us such love for thy creation,
and all thy creatures see in man
their priest and friend,
through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen.

George Appleton (1902-93)

Writer. Anglican Bishop
