"Before they call, I will answer;

while they are still speaking, I will hear."

 — Isaiah 65:24 (Complete Jewish Bible)

"The person of prayer: “... their heart is ever lifted up to God, at all times and in all places. In this they are never hindered, much less interrupted, by any person or thing. In retirement or company, in leisure, business, or conversation, their heart is ever with the Lord. Whether they lie down or rise up, God is in all their thoughts; they walk with God continually, having the loving eye of their mind still fixed upon God, and everywhere; seeing the God that is invisible.”

 

John Wesley (changed to inclusive language)
