“When the mind prays, it moves rocks. When the heart prays, it moves hills. When the soul prays, it moves mountains. When the mind sees, it moves pebbles. When the heart believes, it moves cliffs. When the soul conceives, it moves ridges. When thoughts rise, they move stones. When desires ascend, they move walls. When experiences grow, they move towers. When hope increases, it moves minds. When faith increases, it moves hearts. When love increases, it moves souls.”
