I can't keep the sparrows from flying around my head, but I can keep them from making a nest in my hair.

When I was abandoned by everybody, in my greatest weakness, trembling and afraid of death, when I was persecuted by this wicked world, then I often felt most surely the divine power in this name, Jesus Christ... So, by God's grace, I will live and die for that name.

The devil should not be allowed to keep all the best tunes for himself.

If I am not allowed to laugh in heaven, I don't want to go there.

When I was a child there were many witches, and they bewitched both cattle and men, especially children.

Whenever I have prayed earnestly, I have always received more than I asked for. God may delay, but He always comes.

The Holy Spirit has a way of His own to say much in few words.
