If we are going to live as disciples of Jesus, we have to remember that all noble things are difficult.

It is a life of FAITH, not of intellect and reason, but a life of knowing Who makes us “go.

Prayer is the vital breath of the Christian; not the thing that makes him alive, but the evidence that he is alive.

We lean to our own understanding, or we bank on service and do away with prayer, and consequently by succeeding in the external we fail in the eternal, because in the eternal we succeed only by prevailing prayer.

The characteristic of the new birth is that I yield myself so completely to God that Christ is formed in me.

We are only what we are in the dark; all the rest is reputation.

The Christian life is stamped by 'moral spontaneous originality,' consequently the disciple is open to the same charge that Jesus Christ was, viz., that of inconsistency. But Jesus Christ was always consistent to God, and the Christian must be consistent to the life of the Son of God in him, not consistent to hard and fast creeds. Men pour themselves into creeds, and God has to blast them out of their prejudices before they can become devoted to Jesus Christ.
