Cultivating quietness is a missing discipline today...the quietness needed to nurture an inner life hid in Christ.

Jesus Christ our Lord surrendered in order that He might win; He destroyed His enemies by dying for them and conquered death by allowing death to conquer Him.

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

O God, I have tasted Thy goodness, and it has both satisfied me and made me thirsty for more. I am painfully conscious of my need for further grace.

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

Coming before God in quietness & waiting upon Him in silence often can accomplish more than days of feverish activity.

When I am praying the most eloquently, I am getting the least accomplished in my prayer life. But when I stop getting eloquent and give God less theology and shut up and just gaze upward and wait for God to speak to my heart He speaks with such power that I have to grab a pencil and a notebook and take notes on what God is saying to my heart.
