“The way to grow strong in Christ is to become weak in yourself.”

The more you fulfill yourself, the less you will seek God.

God never gives us discernment in order that we may criticize, but that we may intercede.

We pray when there’s nothing else we can do; Jesus wants us to pray before we do anything at all.

God speaks in the language you know best – not through your ears, but through your circumstances.

Solitude with God repairs the damage done by the fret and noise and clamour of the world.

Jesus Christ carries on intercession for us in heaven; the Holy Ghost carries on intercession in us on earth; and we the saints have to carry on intercession for all men.

No healthy Christian ever chooses suffering; he chooses God’s will, as Jesus did, whether it means suffering or not.

Get to the end of yourself where you can do nothing, but where He does everything.

God will never reveal more truth about himself until you have obeyed what you know already

Perseverance is more than endurance. It is endurance combined with absolute assurance and certainty that what we are looking for is going to happen.

If through a broken heart God can bring His purposes to pass in the world, then thank Him for breaking your heart.

Spiritual maturity is not reached by the passing of the years, but by obedience to the will of God.

Measure your growth in grace by your sensitiveness to sin.

A saint realizes that it is God who engineers his circumstances; consequently there are no complaints, only unrestrained surrender to Jesus.

The main characteristic which is the proof of the indwelling Spirit is an amazing tenderness in personal dealing, and a blazing truthfulness with regard to God’s Word.

We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.

You’ve retracted your rays of warmth. You’ve pulled the clouds to cover sunlight. I think everyone is growing more concerned as the days keep passing and you’re still absent.

I am learning to let go like autumn. I am learning to grow like spring.

I thought the answer was to bury the pain deep within, but nothing grows from grief.

You are right where you are supposed to be; growing, gracefully.

Human population growth is probably the single most serious long-term threat to survival.

I had shed my old skin so I could make room to grow into myself again.

When we die plant us close so life grows from our love still. Even in death my chest will bloom for you.

Tears are the water to the soul that gives growth to your strength.
