Asa Don Brown

"Does god need our prayers? No. God doesn't need anything. A god in need is not a god indeed. So why do we pray? We pray out of a sense of gratitude. Prayer is a thank you. We feel better when we have offered our gratitude to the creator. Prayer is for our emotional and spiritual edification."

Asa Don Brown

"Dear God,I asked that you clear my mind of any negative thoughts so my heart can run free; so I may look at the world with a clearer understanding of your beautiful creation. Cleanse my heart dear God so I may always look through the wonder light you shine upon us. In Jesus name Amen."

Asa Don Brown

"Dear God, I ask that you help me with the darkness I've been feeling and that you help me make today a changing day in my life. I ask you, dear God, for calm in my mind and your light in my heart. I ask these things in Jesus's name, amen."

Asa Don Brown

"At Tara in this fateful hour,I place all Heaven with its power,And the sun with its brightness,And the snow with its whiteness,And the fire with all the strength it hath,And the lightning with its rapid wrath,And the winds with their swiftness along their path,And the sea with its deepness,And the rocks with their steepness,And the earth with its starkness:All these I place,By God's almighty help and graceBetween myself and the powers of darkness!"

"To pray is to communicate with the essence. Praying is calling home."

Quote_1.png
Asa Don Brown

"Dear God, I don't ask for fame and fortune but for an opportunity to embrace many. I don't ask you to make my life perfect but full of love. With every mistake I make, or with any success I have, I ask to feel your grace along the way, for the rest of my life. In Jesus's name, amen."

Asa Don Brown

"Prayer is meeting with God. It's checking in, saying I am here, You are here. It is the present moment."

Quote_1.png
Asa Don Brown

"When every hope is gone, 'when helpers fail and comforts flee,' I find that help arrives somehow, from I know not where. Supplication, worship, prayer are no superstition; they are acts more real than the acts of eating, drinking, sitting or walking. It is no exaggeration to say that they alone are real, all else is unreal."

Asa Don Brown

"Thank you Heavenly Father. You heard my petition. You have answered my plea. May your name be glorified and be praised."
