I can trust the One who has my best interest in mind.

Speaking as a minister it is my strong feeling that no man has a right to preach to a crowd that he has not prayed for.

Before there can be fullness there must be emptiness. Before God can fill us with Himself we must first be emptied of ourselves.

Of all persons the Christian should be best prepared for whatever the New Year brings. He has dealt with life at its source. In Christ he has disposed of a thousand enemies that other men must face alone and unprepared. He can face his tomorrow cheerful and unafraid because yesterday he turned his feet into the ways of peace and today he lives in God. The man who has made God his dwelling place will always have a safe habitation.

What I am anxious to see in Christian believers is a beautiful paradox. I want to see in them the joy of finding God while at the same time they are blessedly pursuing Him. I want to see in them the great joy of having God yet always wanting Him.

Shall it be a religion or shall it be Christ? Shall it be churchianity or shall it be Jesus Christ? Shall it be pride or shall it be humility in Jesus Christ?

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