Remember that we have to ask things of God that are in keeping with the God whom Jesus Christ revealed.

A saint realizes that it is God who engineers his circumstances; consequently there are no complaints, only unrestrained surrender to Jesus.

We are not to preach the doing of good things; good deeds are not to be preached, they are to be performed.

A sentimentalist is one who delights to have high and devout emotions stirred whilst reading in an arm-chair, or in a prayer meeting, but he never translates his emotions into action. Consequently a sentimentalist is usually callous, self-centred and selfish, because the emotions he likes to have stirred do not cost him anything.

The moral miracle of redemption is that God can put a new nature into me through which I can live a totally new life.

A saint is never consciously a saint- a saint is consciously dependent on God.

To identify with the death of Jesus Christ means that we must die to everything that was never a part of Him.
