May not the inadequacy of much of our spiritual experience be traced back to our habit of skipping through the corridors of the Kingdom like children in the market place, chattering about everything, but pausing to learn the value of nothing.
Aiden Wilson TozerAs a sunbeam perishes when cut off from the sun, so man apart from God would pass back into the void of nothingness from which he first leaped at the creative call.
Aiden Wilson TozerGod loves us for ourselves. He values our love more than he values galaxies of new created worlds.
Aiden Wilson TozerOne compromise here, another there and soon enough the so-called Christian and the man in the world look the same.
Aiden Wilson TozerThe essence of surrender is getting out of God's way so that He can do in us what He also wants to do through us.
Aiden Wilson TozerThe spiritual man habitually makes eternity-judgments instead of time-judgments. By faith he rises above the tug of earth and the flow of time and learns to think and feel as one who has already left the world and gone to join the innumerable company of angels and the general assembly and Church of the First-born which are written in heaven. Such a man would rather be useful than famous and would rather serve than be served. And all this must be by the operation of the Holy Spirit within him. No man can become spiritual by himself. Only the free Spirit can make a man spiritual.
