God doesn't work through us because we're flawless; rather, He works through us in spite of our imperfections.

Our self-trust is such a subtle thing that it still comes around whispering to us even after we are sure it is gone.

The great test of faith is to wait on God. . . not expecting to push a button and get whatever we want now.

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.

The grace of God is infinite and beyond our ability to measure. His grace has no beginning and therefore no end.

Jesus Christ never thinks about what we have been! He always thinks about what we are going to be.

The Lordship of Jesus Christ is not quite forgotten among Christians, but it has been relegated to the hymnal where all responsibility toward it may be comfortably discharged in a glow of religious emotion. Or if it is taught as a theory in the classroom it is rarely applied to practical living. The idea that the Man Christ Jesus has absolute final authority over the whole church and over its members in every detail of their lives is simply not now accepted as true by the rank and file of evangelical Christians.
