“We can stand affliction better than we can prosperity, for in prosperity we forget God.”

This lost world will never be reached and brought back to loyalty to God, until the children of God wake up to the fact that they have a mission in the world. If we are true Christians we should all be missionaries.

Spread out your petition before God, and then say, “Thy will, not mine, be done.” The sweetest lesson I have learned in God’s school is to let the Lord choose for me.

Every one of our children will be brought into the ark, if we pray and work earnestly for them.

Out of 100 men, one will read the Bible, the other 99 will read the Christian.

The fact is, we are leaky vessels, and we have to keep right under the fountain all the time to keep full of Christ, and so have fresh supply.

Grace isn’t a little prayer you chant before receiving a meal. It’s a way to live. The law tells me how crooked I am. Grace comes along and straightens me out.

In our prayers, we talk to God, in our Bible study, God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.

Real true faith is man’s weakness leaning on God’s strength.

He who kneels the most, stands the best.

Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to come at all.

Small numbers make no difference to God. There is nothing small if God is in it.

I believe many a man is praying to God to fill him, when he is full already with something else. Before we pray that God would fill us, I believe we ought to pray Him to empty us.

Those who say they will forgive but can’t forget, simply bury the hatchet but leave the handle out for immediate use.

To be tempted is not to sin. The strongest attacks are made on the strongest forts.

Many a professing Christian is a stumbling-block because his worship is divided. On Sunday he worships God; on weekdays God has little or no place in his thoughts.

Excuses are the cradle that Satan rocks men off to sleep in.

I wake up every day and think everything sure is awful, but then I ask the Lord what I can do to make it better.

This time I’ll be better for myself, at least for myself.

Atheism is just a way of clearing the space for better conversations.

Perhaps the saddest irony of depression is that suicide happens when the patient gets a little better and can again function sufficiently.

I am the best. There is nobody better than me.

A good laugh makes any interview, or any conversation, so much better.

If it feels good coming out, then I really don’t care about anything else, for real. It’s all about just having fun with it. If it feels like less work, then the project is coming out better.

I think I’ve changed a little bit. I don’t know whether it’s for the better or for the worse at the moment. I’ve settled into a different mind frame now… being a bit wilder maybe!
