There is nothing that will keep a person from Christ like a good opinion of himself.

Growing a beard is a habit most natural, Scriptural, manly and beneficial.

I had rather be poor in His service than rich in my own.

Every growth of spiritual life, from the first tender shoot until now, has been the work of the Holy Spirit.... The only way to more life is the Holy Spirit. You will not even know that you want more unless He works in you to desire it....

Prayer is the creation of the Holy Spirit. We cannot do without prayer, and we cannot pray without the Holy Spirit.
