Our natural virtues can never come anywhere near what Jesus Christ wants.

I have to learn that the aim in life is God's, not mine.

God has one destined end for mankind - holiness! His one aim is the production of saints. God is not an eternal blessing-machine for men. He did not come to save men out of pity. He came to save men because He had created them to be holy.

The center of salvation is the Cross of Jesus, and the reason it is so easy to obtain salvation is because it cost God so much.

Refusing to be disillusioned is the cause of much of the suffering of human life.

Living a life of faith means never knowing where you are being led - but it does mean loving and knowing the One who is leading. It is literally a life of FAITH, not of understanding and reason- - a life of knowing Him who calls us to go.

So long as there is a human being who does not know Jesus Christ, I am his debtor to serve him until he does.
