The will of God is sweet tonight, altogether ‘good and acceptable and perfect.’ The considerate love of the Lord Jesus for us seems such a kind thing now. I know it has always been so, but somehow I didn’t see how wise it was when it didn’t seem kind… Remind me of this when I cannot regard His love as considerate some time.

Eternity shall be at once a great eye-opener and a great mouth-shutter.

I have prayed for new men, fiery, reckless men, possessed of uncontrollably youthful passion-these lit by the Spirit of God. I have prayed for new words, explosive, direct, simple words. I have prayed for new miracles. Explaining old miracles will not do. If God is to be known as the God who does wonders in heaven and earth, then God must produce for this generation. Lord, fill preachers and preaching with Thy power. How long dare we go on without tears, without moral passions, hatred and love? Not long, I pray, Lord Jesus, not long.

Children are arrows in a quiver, and they are to be trained as missionaries and shot at the Devil.

Oh, the fullness, pleasure, sheer excitement of knowing God on earth!

Surely those who know the great passionate heart of Jehovah must deny their own loves to share in the expression of His.

It is true that a fellow cannot ignore women - but he can think of them as he ought - as sisters, not as sparring partners.
