“THERE are two things wanted,” said Daniel Quorm, “for Christians to get along in this life, and you won’t do much with only one of them, the Bible and prayer―prayer and the Bible. We can’t get along this river with only one oar in the boat; we shall only keep pulling round and round. Scores and hundreds of religious people are today just where they were ten, twenty, thirty years ago, exactly in the same place. They’ve got no more light; no more power. They say there is no standing still in religion; well, there is a deal of lying still, that’s all. Folks keep up their old ailings and failings just as if time had stood still, and the reason is, that they have only one oar in the boat, and they keep pulling themselves round and round. We must have the Word as well as prayer; prayer is not prayer without the Word. I can’t pray right till I get hold of a promise, then I can go bold as a lion. Why, if I were to go down to, the bank at Redburn, and ask for five pounds, they would think me a crazy man; but when I go down there with a check for five pounds―or five hundred for that matter―I go straight in, and put it down, and I pick up my money and come out again. Now that is just how I dearly love to go to the throne of Grace.”
