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

Eternal life is not a gift from God; eternal life is the gift OF GOD.

Self pity is of the devil, and if I wallow in it, I cannot be used by God for his purpose in the world.

God is the Great Engineer, creating circumstances to bring about moments in our lives of divine importance, leading us to divine appointments.

Never focus your eyes on the obstacle or the difficulty. The obstacle will be a matter of total indifference to the river that will flow steadily through you if you will simply remember to stay focused on the Source.

God does not expect us to imitate Jesus Christ; He expects us to allow the life of Jesus to be manifested in our moral flesh.

Faith is not intelligent understanding, faith is deliberate commitment to a Person where I see no way.

We look upon prayer simply as a means of getting things for ourselves, but the biblical purpose of prayer is that we may get to know God Himself.

All our fret and worry is caused by calculating without God.

Yielding to Jesus will break every form of slavery in any human life.

No power on earth or in hell can conquer the Spirit of God in a human spirit

Christianity is not devotion to work, or to a cause, or a doctrine, but devotion to a Person, the Lord Jesus Christ.

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.

Souls of poets dead and gone, What Elysium have ye known, Happy field or mossy cavern, Choicer than the Mermaid Tavern? Have ye tippled drink more fine Than mine host’s Canary wine?

Life is a matter of choices, and every choice you make makes you.

Save when you can and not when you have to.

Lord, grant that I might not so much seek to be loved as to love.

You either spend your life preparing or you spend your life repairing.

Whether you do something or decide to do nothing, either way, you are making a moral choice. And I hope people make the right one.

I’d prefer to wield a rose than to wield the gun.

Make the choice; to be comfortable or to be alive.
