What we need very badly these days is a company of Christians who are prepared to trust God as completely now as they know they must do at the last day... It would be better to invite God now to remove every false trust, to disengage our hearts from all secret hiding places and to bring us out into the open where we can discover for ourselves whether or not we actually trust Him. That is a harsh cure for our troubles, but it is a sure one. Gentler cures may be too weak to do the work. And time is running out on us.

To become effective men of God, then, we must know and acknowledge that every grace and every virtue proceeds from God alone, and that not even a good thought can come from us except it be of Him.

If you want to be holy then you must give time to God and not just intend to.

If God gives you a watch, are you honoring Him more by asking Him what time it is or by simply consulting the watch?

I fear that for the most part people are worshiping worship rather than worshiping God and communing with Him.

The various elements of truth stand in perpetual antithesis, sometimes requiring us to believe apparent opposites while we wait for the moment when we shall know as we are known.

Among the plastic saints of our times, Jesus has to do all the dying, and all we want to hear is another sermon about his dying.
