“Grant that I may not pray alone with the mouth; help me that I may pray from the depths of my heart.”
― Martin Luther

“The Gospel is true because it deprives men of all glory, wisdom, and righteousness and turns over all honor to the Creator alone. It is safer to attribute too much glory unto God than unto man.”
― Martin Luther, Commentary on the Epistle to the Galatians

“My neighbor is every person, especially those who need my help, as Christ explained in the tenth chapter of Luke. Even if a person has done me some wrong, or has hurt me in any way, he is still a human being with flesh and blood. As long as a person remains a human being, so long is he to be an object of our love.”
― Martin Luther, Commentary on the Epistle to the Galatians

“God wants us to pray, and he wants to hear our prayers—not because we are worthy, but because he is merciful.”
― Martin Luther, Faith Alone: A Daily Devotional
