If God contains the fullness of all good things in Himself like an inexhaustible fountain, nothing beyond Him is to be sought by those who strike after the highest good and all the elements of happiness.

If grace acts in us, grace, and not we who do the work, will be crowned.

The principle exercise which the children of god have is to pray. For in this way they give true proof of their faith.

Nearly all the wisdom we possess, that is to say, true and sound wisdom, consists of two parts: the knowledge of God and of ourselves.

The door is closed to prayer unless it is opened with the key of trust.

For until men recognize that they owe everything to God, that they are nourished by His fatherly care, that He is the Author of their every good, that they should seek nothing beyond Him - they will never yield Him willing service. Nay, unless they establish their complete happiness in Him, they will never give themselves truly and sincerely to Him.

Because I know that I am not my own master, I offer my heart as a true sacrifice to the Lord.
