God gave us sleep to remind us we are not him.

Blessed are the peacemakers, and one sure way of peacemaking is to let the fire of contention alone. Neither fan it, nor stir it, nor add fuel to it, but let it go out by itself. Begin your ministry with one blind eye and one deaf ear.

A genuine revival without joy in the Lord is as impossible as spring without flowers, or day-dawn without light.

You may readily judge whether you are a child of God or a hypocrite by seeing in what direction your soul turns in seasons of severe trial. The hypocrite flies to the world and finds a sort of comfort there. But the child of God runs to his Father and expects consolation only from the Lord's hand.

Whenever God means to make a man great, he always breaks him in pieces first.

Never be afraid of the world's censure; it's praise is much more to be dreaded.

Right is right though all condemn, and wrong is wrong though all approve.
