Those who say they will forgive but can't forget, simply bury the hatchet but leave the handle out for immediate use.

A great many people wonder why it was that Christ did not come at once to Martha and Mary, whom He loved, whenever He heard of their affliction. It was to try them, and it is the same with His dealings toward us. If He seems not to come to us in our affliction, it is only to test us.

The reward of service is more service.

If I walk with the world, I can't walk with God.

Happiness is caused by things that happen around me, and circumstances will mar it; but joy flows right on through trouble; joy flows in the night as well as in the day; joy flows through persecution and opposition. It is an unceasing fountain bubbling up in the heart; a secret spring the world can't see and doesn't know anything about.

The object of the Bible is not to tell how good men are, but how bad men can become good.

My heart goes out to you, and I long to see you all coming constantly to God for a fresh supply of love.
