Nothing in or of this world measures up to the simple pleasure of experiencing the presence of God.

When our Lord looked at us, He saw not only what we were -- He was faithful in seeing what we could become! He took away the curse of being and gave us the glorious blessing of becoming.

Until we believe that we are as bad as God says we are, we can never believe that He will do for us what He says He will do. Right here is where popular religion breaks down.

Leadership requires vision, and whence will vision come except from hours spent in the presence of God in humble and fervent prayer?

The believing man does not claim to understand. He falls to his knees and whispers, "God." The man of earth kneels also, but not to worship. He kneels to examine, to search, to find the cause and the how of things.

Men who refuse to worship the true God now worship themselves with tender devotion.

Wherever we find Jesus is the perfect place to worship.
