The trouble with nearly everybody who prays is that he says 'Amen' and runs away before God has a chance to reply. Listening to God is far more important than giving Him our ideas.

I feel simply carried along each hour, doing my part in a plan which is far beyond myself. […] My part is to live this hour in continuous inner conversation with God and in perfect responsiveness to His will. This seems to be all I need to think about.

The sense of being led by an unseen hand which takes mine, while another hand reaches ahead and prepares the way, grows upon me daily.

I choose to look at people through God, using God as my glasses, colored with His love for them.

If you are weary of some sleepy form of devotion, probably God is as weary of it as you are.

The Lord will not wish to count my trophies, but my scars.
