Prayer Quote of the Day

“There is a general kind of praying which fails for lack of precision. It is as if a regiment of soldiers should all fire off their guns anywhere. Possibly somebody would be killed, but the majority of the enemy would be missed.”

Charles Spurgeon (1834-1892)

Pastor. Also known as the 'prince of preachers'

Prayer Bible Verse of the Day

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, 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
