The saved man is not a perfect man, but his heart's desire is to become perfect.

Your emptiness is but the preparation for your being filled, and your casting down is but the making ready for your lifting up.

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?

I believe that many professing Christians are cold and uncomfortable because they are doing nothing for their Lord; but if they actively served him, their blood would begin to circulate spiritually, and it would be well with them.

Great hearts can only be made by great troubles. Great faith must have great trials.

The devil is not afraid of a dust-covered Bible.

The child of God knows his good works do not make him acceptable to God, for he was acceptable to God by Jesus Christ long before he had any good works.
