The Fruit of Prayer.

If He prayed, who was without sin, how much more is the sinner bound to pray? And if He, watching through the whole night, prayed with continued supplications, how much more ought we, night and day, to watch in frequent prayer?—St. Cyprian.
When we send the dove of prayer to Heaven, it brings back an olive-branch in its mouth. We must send prayer before, as a harbinger to bespeak a blessing. Do men think the tree of blessing will drop its fruit into their mouth, when they never shake it by prayer? — Watson.
