A rule I have had for years is: to treat the Lord Jesus Christ as a personal friend. His is not a creed, a mere doctrine, but it is He Himself we have.
It is the only happy life to live for the salvation of souls.
The best work usually meets the strongest opposition.
Let us expect that God is going to use us. Let us have courage and go forward, looking to God to do great things.
There is no better evangelist in the world than the Holy Spirit.
We may easily be too big for God to use, but never too small.
