Take yourself by the scruff of the neck and shake off your incarnate laziness.

The only way we can be of use to God is to let Him take us through the crooks and crannies of our own characters.

Discipleship is based solely on devotion to Jesus Christ, not on following after a particular belief or doctrine.

Seeing is never believing: we interpret what we see in the light of what we believe. Faith is confidence in God before you see God emerging, therefore the nature of faith is that it must be tried.

Prayer is often a temptation to bank on a miracle of God instead of on a moral issue, i.e., it is much easier to ask God to do my work than it is to do it myself. Until we are disciplined properly, we will always be inclined to bank on God's miracles and refuse to do the moral thing ourselves. It is our job, and it will never be done unless we do it.

Many of us suffer from temptations from which we have no business to suffer.

Prayer is not getting things from God. That is a most initial stage; prayer is getting into perfect communion with God: I tell Him what I know He knows in order that I may get to know it as He does.
