“You will never glory in God till first of all God has killed your glorying in yourself.”

To trust God in the light is nothing, but trust him in the dark-that is faith.

Unless you have forgiven others you read your own death warrant when you repeat the Lord’s Prayer.

We wept when we were born though all around us smiled; so shall we smile when we die while all around us weep.

Defend the Bible? I’d sooner defend a lion. You don’t defend the Bible; you open its cage and let it roar.

It is not a matter of time so much as a matter of heart; if you have the heart to pray, you will find the time.

Unbelief will destroy the best of us; faith will save the worst of us.

You must keep all earthy treasures out of your heart, and let Christ be your treasure, and let Him have your heart.

A time will come when instead of shepherds feeding the sheep, the church will have clowns entertaining the goats.

It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness.

Nearness to God brings likeness to God. The more you see God the more of God will be seen in you.

God gave us sleep to remind us we are not him.

Wherever Jesus may lead us, He goes before us. If we don’t know where we are going, we know with whom we go.

We are too prone to engrave our trials in marble and write our blessings in sand.

In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing; but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.

Hold everything earthly with a loose hand, but grasp eternal things with a death-like grip

I want it all: I want the attention and live for the glory nights.

Nothing steals God’s glory more than worrying believers who are driven through life by fear.

When you use your life for God’s glory, everything you do can become an act of worship

God always gets the glory when Jesus comes.

But to mean it when I say that I want my life to count for His glory is to drive a stake through the heart of self – a painful and determined dying to me that must be a part of every day I live.

If only everyone could know we’ve been created by and for God! If only we could all comprehend that we’re precious to Him, housing mirrored souls designed to reflect His glory.

Can you lay your life down, so a stranger can live? Can you take what you need, but take less than you give? Could you close every day, without the glory and fame? Could you hold your head high, when no-one knows your name?

For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.
