The cross is suffering with Christ.

Christianity without the living Christ is inevitably Christianity without discipleship, and Christianity without discipleship is always Christianity without Christ.

Any honours that come our way are only stolen from him to whom alone they really belong, the Lord who sent us.

In recent years we have seen a great deal of bravery and self-sacrifice, but civil courage hardly anywhere, even among ourselves.

In normal life we hardly realize how much more we receive than we give, and life cannot be rich without such gratitude. It is so easy to overestimate the importance of our own achievements compared with what we owe to the help of others.

When people are deeply affected by the Word, they tell it to other people.

The richness of God’s Word ought to determine our prayer, not the poverty of our heart.
