THE FINE PRINT -
"... when making
specific requests, it
will be well to add to each
one of them this qualifi-
cation ... 'if it be Thy
will.' " (12 & 12,
p. 102)
STAYING OUT OF THE RESULTS -
"We should remember that Step Eleven asks us to pray only for the knowledge of God's will and the power to carry that out." "Though the temptation to pray for a particular result may be great, we must resist the urge to do so ... ." (It Works, How & Why, p. 80)
"Results! Why,
man, I have got-
ten a lot of results.
I know several thou-
sand things that
won't work."
- Thomas A. Edison (1847 - 1931) U.S. inventor
