Nothing in our lives is a mere insignificant detail to God.

There is no need to get to a place of prayer; pray wherever you are.

The spirit of God has the habit of taking the words of Jesus out of their scriptural setting and putting them into the setting of our personal lives.

There are many things that are perfectly legitimate, but if you are going to concentrate on God you cannot do them.

Every element of our own self-reliance must be put to death by the power of God.

God nowhere tells us to give up things for the sake of giving them up. He tells us to give them up for the sake of the only thing worth having - viz., life with Himself. It is a question of loosening the bonds that hinder the life.

It is misleading to imagine that we are developed in spite of our circumstances, for we are developed because of them. It is mastery in circumstances that is needed, not mastery over them.
