If we are to be ready for Jesus Christ, we have to stop being religious (that is, using religion as a higher kind of culture) and be spiritually real.

The inattentive, slovenly way we drift into the presence of God is an indication that we are not bothering to think about Him. Whenever our Lord spoke of prayer, He said, "Ask." It is impossible to ask if you do not concentrate.

Readiness for God means that we are ready to do the tiniest little thing or the great big thing, it makes no difference

There is no greater threat to our devotion to Christ than our service for Christ.

The more you fulfill yourself, the less you will seek God.

Don't plan without God. God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the plans we have made, when we have not taken Him into account.

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