God is not a God of the emotions but the God of truth.

Often we combat our evil thoughts most effectively if we absolutely refuse to allow them to be expressed in words.

We are to find God in what we know, not in what we don't know.

The way to misuse our possessions is to use them as an insurance against the morrow. Anxiety is always directed to the morrow, whereas goods are in the strictest sense meant to be used only for to-day.

We do God’s work for our brothers and sisters when we learn to listen to them. So often Christians, especially preachers, think that their only service is always to have to 'offer' something when they are together with other people. They forget that listening can be a greater service than speaking. Many people seek a sympathetic ear and do not find it among Christians, because these Christians are talking even when they should be listening.

Jesus' commandment never wishes to destroy life, but rather to preserve, strengthen, and heal life.

Time lost is time not filled, time left empty.
