An idol of the mind is as offensive to God as an idol of the hand.

Always, everywhere God is present, and always He seeks to discover Himself to each one

Brother Lawrence expressed the highest moral wisdom when he testified that if he stumbled and fell he turned at once to God and said, 'O Lord, this is what you may expect of me if You leave me to myself.' He then accepted forgiveness, thanked God, and gave himself no further concerns about the matter.

The neglected heart will soon be a heart overrun with worldly thoughts; the neglected life will soon become a moral chaos.

If the Holy Spirit was withdrawn from the church today, 95 percent of what we do would go on and no one would know the difference. If the Holy Spirit had been withdrawn from the New Testament church, 95 percent of what they did would stop, and everybody would know the difference.

We know how God would act if he were in our place - he has been in our place.

Always the most revealing thing about the church is her idea of God.
