I surrendered unto Him all there was of me; everything! Then for the first time I realized what it meant to have real power.

Whether life grinds a man down or polishes him depends on what he's made of.

I didn't have any looks, I didn't have any talent, and it was easy for me to say to the Lord, "I don't have anything." If you only knew where I came from ... this leetle-bitty town with no more than twelve hundred people in it. So ... anything I am today, He is the one who has done it [ellipses in source].

I surrendered unto Him all there was of me; everything! Then for the first time I realized what it meant to have real power.

Wherever you find real love, you will also find humility. Remember something: humility is not a weak and timid quality. Too often we feel that humility is a sign of weakness. This is not so. It is the sign of strength and security.

A little knowledge and an over-abundance of zeal always tends to be harmful. In the area involving religious truths, it can be disastrous.

Faith is that quality or power by which the things desired become the things possessed.
