“The measure of a man is not how many servants he has but how many men he serves .”

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.

God doesn’t seek for golden vessels, and does not ask for silver ones, but He must have clean ones.

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

Church attendance is as vital to a disciple as a transfusion of rich, healthy blood to a sick man.

The best way to revive a church is to build a fire in the pulpit.

Let us expect that God is going to use us. Let us have courage and go forward, looking to God to do great things.

God never made a promise that was too good to be true.

The heart is like a garden. It can grow compassion or fear, resentment or love. What seeds will you plant there?

Mindfulness is about love and loving life. When you cultivate this love, it gives you clarity and compassion for life, and your actions happen in accordance with that.

Use what seems like poison as medicine. Use your personal suffering as the path to compassion for all beings.

Mama was my greatest teacher, a teacher of compassion, love and fearlessness. If love is sweet as a flower, then my mother is that sweet flower of love.

Kindness always comes back.

How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these.

I call upon you to draw from the depths of your being – to prove that we are a human race, to prove that our love outweighs our need to hate, that our compassion is more compelling than our need to blame.

We all have hearts. If you have a heart, love somebody. If you have enough heart, love everybody.
