Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading.

Faith is unutterable trust in God, trust which never dreams that He will not stand by us.

Am I becoming more and more in love with God as a holy God, or with the conception of an amiable Being who says, “Oh well, sin doesn’t matter much”?

Beware of the inclination to dictate to God what consequences you would allow as a condition of your obedience to Him.

God can never make us wine if we object to the fingers He uses to crush us with.

The passion of Christianity comes from deliberately signing away my own rights and becoming a bondservant of Jesus Christ. Until I do that, I will not begin to be a saint.

It is better to enter into life maimed but lovely in God’s sight than to appear lovely to man’s eyes but lame to God’s.
