Saint Francis de Sales Prayer Quotations

By turning your eyes on God in meditation, your whole soul will be filled with God. Begin all your prayers in the presence of God.

Make sickness itself a prayer.

The Prayer of the sick person is his patience and his acceptance of his sickness for the love of Jesus Christ. Make sickness itself a prayer, for there is none more powerful, save martyrdom!

Every Christian needs a half-hour of prayer each day, except when he is busy, then he needs an hour.

Those who pray from the heart do not think about the prayer they are saying, but about the God to whom they pray.
