Beware of any work for God that causes or allows you to avoid concentrating on Him.

Confidence in the natural world is self-reliance; in the spiritual world, it is God-reliance.

We always know when Jesus is at work because He produces in the commonplace something that is inspiring.

Get into the habit of dealing with God about everything. Unless in the first waking moment of the day you learn to fling the door wide back and let God in, you will work on a wrong level all day; but swing the door wide open and pray to your Father in secret, and every public thing will be stamped with the presence of God.

If Jesus is a teacher only, then all He can do is to tantalize us by erecting a standard we cannot come anywhere near. But if by being born again from above we know Him first as Savior, we know that He did not come to teach us only. He came to make us what He teaches we should be. The Sermon on the Mount is a statement of the life we will live when the Holy Spirit is having His way with us.

Temptation is a suggested short cut to the realization of the highest at which I aim - not towards what I understand as evil, but towards what I understand as good.

The greatest answer to prayer is that I am brought into a perfect understanding with God, and that alters my view of actual things.
