The life of faith is lived one day at a time, and it has to be lived - not always looked forward to as though the "real" living were around the next corner. It is today for which we are responsible. God still owns tomorrow.

The man whose eye is single for the glory of Another can be trusted.

The way we live ought to manifest the truth of what we believe. A messy life speaks of a messy and incoherent faith.

There are those who insist that it is a very bad thing to question God. To them, “why?” is a rude question. That depends, I believe, on whether it is an honest search, in faith, for His meaning, or whether it is the challenge of unbelief and rebellion.

But the things that we feel most deeply we ought to learn to be silent about, at least until we have talked them over thoroughly with God.

Self-pity is... a sinkhole from which no rescuing hand can drag you because you have chosen to sink.

God's command 'Go ye, and preach the gospel to every creature' was the categorical imperative. The question of personal safety was wholly irrelevant.
