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.

The love of God is not created- it is His nature.

Eternal life is not a gift from God; eternal life is the gift OF GOD.

People say that it is so hard to bring Jesus Christ and present him before the lives of men today. Of course it is. It is so hard that it is impossible except by the power of the indwelling Holy Ghost.

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.

The secret of Christian quietness is not indifference, but the knowledge that God is my Father, He loves me, and I shall never think of anything He will forget. With this knowledge, worry becomes an impossibility.

We think of prayer as a preparation for work, or a calm after having done work, whereas prayer is the essential work.
