We must never edit God.

God never hurries. There are no deadlines against which he must work. Only to know this is to quiet our spirits and relax our nerves.

Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its environment, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.

My miseries have always come out of my own flesh, never from any burden Jesus has laid on me.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casteth out fear. Fear is a painful emotion that arises at the thought that we may be harmed or made to suffer. As long as we must trust for survival to our ability to out look or out maneuver the enemy, we have every good reason to be afraid. Fear is torment. To know that love is of God and to enter into the secret place leaning upon the arm of the Beloved, this and only this can cast out fear.

If Jesus Christ isn't the central figure in our lives and in our churches, we're only fooling ourselves.

Repentance isn't only sorrow for past sins, it's also a determination to now do the will of God as He reveals it to us
