God makes us as broken bread and poured-out wine to please Him. Beware of competing calls once the call of God grips you.

When God gives you a vision and darkness follows, wait. God will bring the vision He has given you to reality in your life if you will wait on His timing. Never try to help God fulfill His word

Sorrow burns up a great amount of shallowness.

Some prayers are followed by silence (from God) because they are wrong, others because they are bigger than one can understand. It will be a wonderful moment for some of us when we stand before God and find that the prayers we clamored for in early days and imagined were never answered, have been answered in the most amazing way, and that God's silence has been the sign of the answer.

There are certain things we must not pray about - moods, for instance. Moods never go by praying, moods go by kicking.

The measure of the worth of our public activity for God is the private profound communion we have with Him.

You must learn to wrestle against the things that hinder your communication with God.
