We have an idea that God is leading us to a particular end, a desired goal; He is not...What we call the process God calls the end. His purpose is that I depend on Him and His power NOW. It is the process, not the end that is glorifying to God.

Don't read to remember; read to realize.

Spiritual maturity is not reached by the passing of the years, but by obedience to the will of God. Some people mature into an understanding of God’s will more quickly than others because they obey more readily; they more readily sacrifice the life of nature to the will of God.

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.

Death is God's delightful way of giving us life.

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.

Some prayers are followed by silence because they are wrong, others because they are bigger than we can understand.
