We pray when there's nothing else we can do; Jesus wants us to pray before we do anything at all.

The height of the mountaintop is measured by the drab drudgery of the valley.

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.

If you have had no tension in your life, never been screwed up by problems, your mortality well within your own grasp, and someone tells you that God so loved you that He gave His Son to die for you, nothing but good manners will keep you from being amused.

Obey Him with glad reckless joy.

Too often we treat prayer as the preparation for the work of the church. Do you not see? Prayer IS the work of the church.

We must build our faith not on fading lights but on the Light that never fails.
