Few things help me more than quotes. They are generally short and easy to remember while still conveying a staggering or weighty truth. They can be life-changing or simply enterntaining. But either way, I love quotes on all sorts of things- faith, life, prayer, etc. Here are a few of my favorites:
"God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him."
-John Piper
"God helps those who humble themselves."
-C.J. Mahaney
"Humor is emotional chaos remembered in tranquility."
-James Thurber
"It's better to be silent and thought a fool, than to speak and remove all doubt."
-Abraham Lincoln
“Beware in prayer, above everything, of limiting God, not only by unbelief, but by fancying that you know what He can do.”
-Andrew Murray
“It is not because things are good that we are to thank the Lord, but because He is good.”
-Hannah Whitall Smith
"In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. But in practice, there is."
-Yogi Berra
"Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth."
-Sherlock Holmes
"I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them."
-Ian L. Fleming
"I think it's wrong that only one company makes the game Monopoly."
-Steven Wright
