The glory of God always comes at the sacrifice of self.

Perhaps it takes a purer faith to praise God for unrealized blessings than for those we once enjoyed or those we enjoy now.

God rescues us by breaking us, by shattering our strength and wiping out our resistance.

God's redemptive revelation in Scripture is necessary to saving faith and peace with God. Faith in a risen Savior is necessary if the vague stirrings toward immortality are to bring us to restful and satisfying communion with God.

No man gives anything acceptable to God until has has first given himself in love and sacrifice.

The abuse of a harmless thing is the essence of sin.

God cannot use a man or woman greatly until he wounds them deeply.
