The sympathy which is reverent with what it cannot understand is worth its weight in gold.

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

Am I getting nobler, better, more helpful, more humble, as I get older? Am I exhibiting the life that men take knowledge of as having been with Jesus, or am I getting more self-assertive, more deliberately determined to have my own way? It is a great thing to tell yourself the truth.

Make the determination to abide in Jesus wherever you are now or wherever you may be placed in the future.

Prayer is the way the life of God is nourished.

Obedience to the call of Christ nearly always costs everything to two people- the one who is called, and the one who loves that one.

Jesus Christ demands the same unrestrained, adventurous spirit in those who have placed their trust in Him that the natural man exhibits. If a person is ever going to do anything worthwhile, there will be times when he must risk everything by his leap in the dark.
