If you can really make a man believe you love him, you have won him; and if I could only make people really believe that God loves them, what a rush we would see for the kingdom of God!

His is a loving, tender hand, full of sympathy and compassion.

It is not the man that can preach the best that is the most successful, but the man who knows how to get his people together to pray.

It may be that at this moment every battlement of heaven is alive with the redeemed. There is a sainted mother watching for her daughter.
