“The Lord has shown me that I can do anything, but that He has said, apart from Me ye can do nothing. So it comes to this, that everything I have done, and can still do apart from Him is nothing!”

The Christian faith begins not with a big DO but with a big DONE.

I consecrate myself to God to do His will where I am, be it in school, office, or kitchen, or wherever He may, in His wisdom, send me.

The devil abhors light and truth because these remove the ground of his working.

God has always one sufficient answer, His Son Jesus Christ, and he is the answer to every need.

To remove warfare from a spiritual life is to render it unspiritual.

God will not give me humility, or patience, or holiness, or love as separate investments of His grace. He has given only one gift to meet our need, His Son Christ Jesus.

To bear the cross means that you refrain from doing what you have the power to do. You are qualified to fulfill your desire, yet you refrain from doing so.

Take this as the secret of Christ’s life in you: His Spirit dwells in your innermost spirit. Meditate on it, believe in it, and remember it until this glorious truth produces within you a holy fear and wonderment that the Holy Spirit indeed abides in you.

Revelation is the first step to holiness, and consecration is the second. A day must come in our lives, as definite as the day of our conversion, when we give up all right to ourselves and submit to the absolute Lordship of Jesus Christ.

Spiritual advancement is measured by faithful obedience.

Our prayers lay the track down which Gods power can come. Like a mighty locomotive, his power is irresistible, but it cannot reach us without rails.

Not until we take the place of a servant can He take His place as Lord.

I also doubt a man can give really clear reasons for anything.

You can ruin anything if you focus at it.

Because I grew up in the 60s girls were not allowed to do anything. As I’ve gotten older and realized that women can do things like that I thought, ‘Why not? Now’s the time.’

I knew if I ate anything of hers again, it would lkely tell me the same message: help me,

Whatever obstacles you face, remember you can get through anything if you want to badly enough.

Doing anything when you’re bored is very very boring. Anyway, doing nothing is the point of being bored.

The things that stress me out haven’t changed. But I don’t wanna lose anything. So I thought that at least I would change. I’m lucky…that I’m afraid of losing something.

It took us five hours to reach Tokyo, but I was really happy. I kept talking about myself, and didn’t hear anything about Nana. But now that I know you better; I know you wouldn’t say anything.
