Discipline, for the Christian, begins with the body. We have only one. It is this body that is the primary material given to us for sacrifice. We cannot give our hearts to God and keep our bodies for ourselves.

Everything if given to God can become your gateway to joy.

The will of God is never exactly what you expect it to be. It may seem to be much worse, but in the end it's going to be a lot better and a lot bigger.

Blessings taken for granted are often forgotten.

God has promised to supply all our needs. What we don't have now, we don't need now.

In whatever God does in the course of our lives, he gives us, through the experience, some power to help others.

I will offer to Him both my tears and my exultation. Nothing we offer to Him will be lost.
