Deliverance can come to us only by the defeat of our old life. Safety and peace come only after we have been forced to our knees. God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.

People have faith in 'faith' and largely forget that our confidence is not in the power of faith but in the Person and work of the Savior, Jesus Christ.

Let me never become a slave to crowds.

Worship, I say, rises or falls with our concept of God .... and if there is one terrible disease in the Church of Christ, it is that we do not see God as great as He is.

The inner life must overcome the flesh or the flesh will overcome and destroy the inner life.

God's plan will continue on God's schedule.

When I understand that everything happening to me is to make me more Christlike, it resolves a great deal of anxiety.
