It requires a serious mind and a determined heart to pray past the ordinary into the unusual.

If I empty out half of my life, God can only fill half...God will fill as much of us as we allow Him to fill.

Justice is not something God has. Justice is something that God is.

The kingdom of God is not in words. Words are only incidental and can never be fundamental. When evangelicalism ceased to emphasize fundamental meanings and began emphasizing fundamental words, and shifted from meaning to words and from power to words, they began to go down hill.

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.

We can be in our day what the heroes of faith were in their day - but remember at the time they didn't know they were heroes.

Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He IS that standard.
