Quote by John Bunyan

“Here is the life of prayer, when in or with the Spirit, a man being made sensible of sin, and how to come to the Lord for mercy; he comes, I say, in the strength of the Spirit, and crieth Father. That one word spoken in faith is better than a thousand prayers, as men call them, written and read, in a formal, cold, lukewarm way.”

Faith is so great an artist in arguing and reasoning with the soul, that it will bring over the hardest heart that it hath to deal with.
