To be strong, to steer straight onward, to dare to praise God, to sit alone and keep silence because He has laid it upon us, to put our mouths in the dust, if so be there may be hope -- here is fortitude indeed.

God does not fill with His Holy Spirit those who believe in the fullness of the Spirit, or those who desire Him, but those who obey Him.

God has a purpose in every life, and when the soul is completely yielded and acquiescent, He will certainly realize it. Blessed is he who has never thwarted the working of the divine ideal.

God is love; to do his will is to scatter love in handfuls of blessing on a weary world.

I can't say I'm willing, Lord, but I'm willing to be made willing.

The greatest tragedy of life is not unanswered prayer, buy unoffered prayer.
