Dreaming about a thing in order to do it properly is right; but dreaming about it when we should be doing it is wrong.

God's "nothings" are His most positive answers. We have to stay on God and wait. Never try to help God to fulfill His word.

We have the idea that God is going to do some exceptional thing- that He is preparing and equipping us for some extraordinary work in the future. But as we grow in His grace we find that God is glorifying Himself here and now, at this very moment. If we have God’s assurance behind us, the most amazing strength becomes ours, and we learn to sing, glorifying Him even in the ordinary days and ways of life.

Pray because you have a Father, not because it quietens you, and give Him time to answer.

We have become so self-centered that we go to God only for something from Him, and not for God Himself.

Beware of being obsessed with consistency to your own convictions instead of being devoted to God. The important consistency in a saint is not to a principle but to the divine life. It is easier to be an excessive fanatic than it is to be consistently faithful, because God causes an amazing humbling of our religious conceit when we are faithful to Him.

The main characteristic which is the proof of the indwelling Spirit is an amazing tenderness in personal dealing, and a blazing truthfulness with regard to God's Word.
