When a man’s heart is right with God the mysterious utterances of the Bible are spirit and life to him. Spiritual truth is discernible only to a pure heart, not to a keen intellect. It is not a question of profundity of intellect, but of purity of heart.

Never take your obedience as the reason God blesses you; obedience is the outcome of being rightly related to God.

The root of all sin is the suspicion that God is not good.

When we say "Thy will be done," do we say it with a sigh? If so, we have never realized that the character of God is holy love; nothing can ever happen outside His purposeful will.

God does not further our spiritual life in spite of our circumstances, but in and by our circumstances.

God wants to use us as He used His own Son

One of the greatest snares is the number of good things we might do. Jesus Christ never did the good things He might have done, He did everything He ought to do because He had His eye fixed on His Father's will and He sacrificed Himself for His Father.
