Grace means undeserved kindness. It is the gift of God to man the moment he sees he is unworthy of God's favor.

Sometimes when your child talks, your friends cannot understand what he says; but the mother understands very well. So if our prayer comes from the heart, God understands our language.

Man is born with his face turned away from God. When he truly repents, he is turned right round toward God; he leaves his old life.

The Son of God passed by the mansions and went down in a manger that He might sympathize with the lowly.

Whitewashing the pump won't make the water pure.

Prayer does not mean that I am to bring God down to my thoughts and my purposes, and bend his government according to my foolish, silly, and sometimes sinful notions. Prayer means that I am to be raised up into feeling, into union and design with him; that I am to enter into his counsel and carry out his purpose fully.

In our prayers, we talk to God, in our Bible study, God talks to us, and we had better let God do most of the talking.
