There is a better way. It is to repudiate our own wisdom and take instead the infinite wisdom of God.

It is astonishing, how many difficulties clear up without any effort when the inner life gets straightened out. If half the time we spend trying to fix up outward things were spent in getting our hearts right, we would be delighted with the result. Strange as it may seem, harmony within our hearts depends mostly upon our getting into harmony with God.

It is dangerous to be so busy that you have no time to wait on God.

Nothing bothers the devil more than a Christian delighting in God’s presence.

We who follow Christ are men and women of eternity. We must put no confidence in the passing scenes of the disappearing world. We must resist every attempt of Satan to palm off upon us the values that belong to mortality. Nothing less than forever is long enough for us.

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

Faith creates nothing; it simply reckons upon that which is already there.
