The prayer of
faith is not a demand that we place on God. It is not a presumption of a granted request. The authentic prayer of faith is one that models Jesus' prayer. It is always uttered in a spirit of subordination. In all our prayers, we must let God be God. No one tells the Father what to do, not even the Son. Prayers are always to be requests made in humility and submission to the Father's will. — R.C. Sproul

On a film set, for me, there's so much more time to process what's going on than there is on a television set. There's more wiggle room to try things and fail and try again and get to the heart of what's going on in the scene, which is really fun for me. It's what I like to do. — Taylor Schilling

Hell is cold. Do you remember when you told me that? We were in the cellars of the Dark House.

If it is the fire of Heaven that takes you from me, what a cruel irony that would be. — Cassandra Clare
