God never estimates what we give from impulse. We are given credit for what we determine in our hearts to give; for the giving that is governed by a fixed determination. The Spirit of God revolutionises our philanthropic instincts. Much of our philanthropy is simply the impulse to save ourselves an uncomfortable feeling. The Spirit of God alters all that. As saints our attitude towards giving is that we give for Jesus Christ's sake, and from no other motive.

Remember that we have to ask things of God that are in keeping with the God whom Jesus Christ revealed.

We pray pious blether, our will is not in it, and then we say God does not answer; we never asked Him for anything. Asking means that our wills are in what we ask.

The secret of the missionary is...I am His, and He is carrying out His work through me.

Many of us have a mental conception of what a Christian should be, and the lives of the saints become a hindrance to our concentration on God.

Jesus Christ founded His Kingdom on the weakest link of all-a Baby.

The root of all sin is the suspicion that God is not good.
