My only joys therefore are that when God has given me a work to do, I have not refused it.

The light that shines farthest shines brightest nearest home.

Real Christians revel in desperate ventures for Christ, expecting from God great things and attempting the same with exhilaration.

Prayer is good; but when used as a substitute for obedience, it is nothing but a blatant hypocrisy... Don't hedge! Time flies! ... Enlist!

Sometimes I feel... that my cross is heavy beyond endurance... My heart seems worn out and bruised beyond repair, and in my deep loneliness I often wish to be gone, but God knows best, and I want to do every ounce of work He wants me to do.

Some wish to live within the sound of a chapel bell, I want to run a rescue shop within a yard of Hell.

Christ wants not nibblers of the possible, but grabbers of the impossible.
