John BunyanIn prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
About This Quote
I’ve always wondered if there is anything more beautiful than a person who is so in love with God that they don’t need the words to express it. To be in love with someone and not have the words for it is a very deep feeling, a feeling that can become a life-long bond between two people. When you are in love with someone, even when he or she isn’t saying the words, you can still feel that connection. In prayer, it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
