The most useful members of a church are usually those who would be doing harm if they were not doing good.

It is far easier to fight with sin in public than to pray against it in private.

Patience! patience! You are always in a hurry, but God is not.

God does not need your strength: he has more than enough of power of his own. He asks your weakness: he has none of that himself, and he is longing, therefore, to take your weakness, and use it as the instrument in his own mighty hand. Will you not yield your weakness to him, and receive his strength?

Wisdom is the right use of knowledge.

The goal of prayer is the ear of God.

From the descent of the Holy Spirit at the beginning we may learn something concerning His operations at the present time. Remember at the outset that whatever the Holy Spirit was at the first, He is that now, for as God, He remains forever the same-whatever He did then He is able to do still, for His power is by no means diminished.
