Fervency of Spirit

  • It is not the arithmetic of our prayers, how many they are;
  • nor the rhetoric of our prayers, how eloquent they are;
  • nor the geometry of our prayers, how long they be;
  • nor the music of our prayers, how sweet our voice may be;
  • nor the logic of our prayers, now argumentative they may be;
  • nor the method of our prayers, how orderly they may be—which God cares for.
  • Fervency of spirit is that which availeth much.

William Law, in J. S. Baxter, Explore the Book, p. 236
