“If you board the wrong train, it is no use running along the corridor in the other direction.”

The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children.

Discipleship is not an offer that man makes to Christ.

We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God. We must not assume that our schedule is our own to manage, but allow it to be arranged by God.

Fruit is always the miraculous, the created; it is never the result of willing, but always a growth. The fruit of the Spirit is a gift of God, and only He can produce it. They who bear it know as little about it as the tree knows of its fruit. They know only the power of Him on whom their life depends.

Cheap grace is the deadly enemy of our church. We are fighting today for costly grace.

A God who let us prove his existence would be an idol.

I can no longer condemn or hate a brother for whom I pray, no matter how much trouble he causes me.

Not everyone can wait: neither the sated nor the satisfied nor those without respect can wait. The only ones who can wait are people who carry restlessness around with them.

In ordinary life we hardly realize that we receive a great deal more than we give, and that it is only with gratitude that life becomes rich.

The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children.

How would you expect to find community while you intentionally withdraw from it at some point? The disobedient cannot believe; only the obedient believe.

Nothing can be more cruel than the leniency which abandons others to their sin. Nothing can be more compassionate than the severe reprimand which calls another Christian in one’s community back from the path of sin.

Judging others makes us blind, whereas love is illuminating. By judging others we blind ourselves to our own evil and to the grace which others are just as entitled to as we are.

The world exercises dominion by force and Christ and Christians conquer by service.

Where God tears great gaps we should not try to fill them with human words.

Time is the most valuable thing that we have, because it is the most irrevocable.

Half the battle is direction. The other half is dedication & self believe.

Your leadership is always moving in the direction of your strongest thought.

The path to success starts with one step in the right direction.  

Good friends will guide you, make you learn new things & point you in the right direction

If we do not know how to meaningfully talk about racism, our actions will move in misleading directions.

The wisest men follow their own direction.

We must exercise ourselves in the things which bring happiness, since, if that be present, we have everything, and, if that be absent, all our actions are directed toward attaining it.

If you are a parent, open doors to unknown directions to the child so he can explore. Don’t make him afraid of the unknown,give him support.
