I know perfectly well that, wherever I go and preach, there are many better preachers ... than I am; all that I can say about it is that the Lord uses me.

Prayer is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honor of a Christian.

Those who do not hope cannot wait; but if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.

The disciples of a patient Saviour should be patient themselves.

He who climbs above the cares of this world, and turns his face to his God, has found the sunny side of life.

God gave me this great book to preach from, and if He has put anything in it you think is not fit, go and complain to Him, not to me. I am simply his servant, and if His errand that I am to tell is objectionable, I cannot help it.

He makes those just who are unjust, forgives those who deserve to be punished, and favors those who deserve no favor.
