We go astray when we think that we can do spiritual work without spiritual power.

No man should desire to be happy who is not at the same time holy. He should spend his efforts in seeking to know and do the will of God, leaving to Christ the matter of how happy he should be.

Jesus Christ knows the worst about you. Nonetheless, He is the one who loves you the most.

God sees us perfect in His Son while He disciplines and chastens and purges us that we may be partakers of His holiness.

Unselfish love does not exploit its object and it does not ask for anything in return.

The love of Christ both wounds and heals, it fascinates and frightens, it kills and makes alive, it draws and repulses. There can be nothing more terrible or wonderful than to be stricken with love for Christ so deeply that the whole being goes out in a pained adoration of His person, an adoration that disturbs and disconcerts while it purges and satisfies and relaxes the deep inner heart.

Christians don't tell lies they just go to church and sing them.
