I would much rather be the trusting child of a rich Father, than a beggar at the door of worldly men.

Father sat down on the edge of the narrow bed. "Corrie," he began gently, "when you and I go to Amsterdam-when do I give you your ticket?" I sniffed a few times, considering this. "Why, just before we get on the train." "Exactly. And our wise Father in heaven knows when we're going to need things, too. Don't run out ahead of Him, Corrie. When the time comes that some of us will have to die, you will look into your heart and find the strength you need-just in time.

My father prayed because he had a good friend with whom to share the problems of the day.

To pray only when in peril is to use safety belts only in heavy traffic.

We deal with God - who is Love. He isn't a dictator. He is a loving Father. There is no end to what He would like to do for us.

If you look at the world, you'll be distressed. If you look within, you'll be depressed. If you look at God you'll be at rest.

When a house is on fire and you know that there are people in it, it is a sin to straighten pictures in that house. When the world about you is in great danger, works that are in themselves not sinful can be quite wrong.
