We must begin to believe that God, in the mystery of prayer, has entrusted us with a force that can move the Heavenly world, and can bring its power down to earth.

How different our standard is from Christ's. We ask how much a man gives. Christ asks how much he keeps.

Humility is nothing but the disappearance of self in the vision that God is all.

As natural and easy as it has been to be proud, it must become natural for us to be humble.

The root of all virtue and grace, of all faith and acceptable worship, is that we know that we have nothing but what we receive, and bow in deepest humility to wait upon God for it.

Humility is the displacement of self by the enthronement of God.

Pride must die in you, or nothing of heaven can live in you.
