We actually slander and dishonor God by our very eagerness to serve Him without knowing Him.

When it is a question of God's almighty Spirit, never say, 'I can't.'

God's will is hard only when it comes up against our stubbornness, then it is as cruel as a ploughshare and as devastating as an earthquake.
