“There is nothing more tragic than to come to the end of life and know we have been on the wrong course.”

I want nothing for myself; I want everything for the Lord.

Samson is not alone in the history of man in failing in this regard. Delilah is still cutting the hair of man today!

God is not seeking a display of my Christ-likeness , but a manifestation of His Christ.

Outside of Christ, I am only a sinner, but in Christ, I am saved. Outside of Christ, I am empty; in Christ, I am full. Outside of Christ,

The child of God ought to confess his weakness that he does not know how to pray, and petition the Holy Spirit to teach him.

Not by gain our life is measured, But by what we’ve lost ‘Tis scored; ‘Tis not how much wine is drunken But how much has been outpoured. For the strength of love never standeth In the sacrifice we bear; He who has the greatest suffering Ever has the most to share.

I have never been carried around by a large boy, or laughed until my stomach hurt at the dinner table, or listened to the clamor of a hundred people all talking at once. Peace is restrained; this is free.

I’ve been second my whole life.

And remember this, that if you’ve been hated, you’ve also been loved.
