With the grace of prayer, we shall prevail.

About This Quote

In many cases, prayer can be a positive force. Indeed, it can be a great comfort to those who are suffering. It can also be a great force for good. We should not, however, be naive enough to presume that prayer will always prevail.

Sometimes, prayer can become a crutch for a person who falls into a pit of despair. When a person is going through tough times and knows that prayer is all they have left, they may fall into dependence on it. The more they rely on prayer, the more likely it is they will become dependent upon it.

In order for prayer to be of any use at all, the person who uses it must have the strength to overcome their own shortcomings and failings so that their prayers will always have an effect.
