A life of intimacy with God is characterized by joy.

Keep your life so constantly in touch with God that His surprising power can break through at any point.

A river reaches places its source never knows.

When a man says he must develop a holy life alone with God, he is of no more use to his fellow men: he puts himself on a pedestal, away from the common run of men.........If we are abandoned to Jesus, we have no ends of our own to serve.

Get into the habit of dealing with God about everything. Unless in the first waking moment of the day you learn to fling the door wide back and let God in, you will work on a wrong level all day; but swing the door wide open and pray to your Father in secret, and every public thing will be stamped with the presence of God.

Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work.

If we were never depressed we should not be alive; it is the nature of a crystal never to be depressed.
