The word of God is always most precious to the man who most lives upon it.

Humility is to make a right estimate of one's self.

Children will imitate their fathers in their vices, seldom in their repentance.

If your faith does not make you pray, have nothing to do with it; get rid of it, and God help thee to begin again.

Man was made in the image of God, and nothing will satisfy man but God, in whose image he was made.

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?

It is wonderful how God works by our hands, and yet His own hand does it all.
