We must never put our dreams of success as God's purpose for us; His purpose may be exactly the opposite. His purpose is that I depend on HIM and in HIS power NOW. His end is the process. It is the process, not the end, which is glorifying to God....His purpose is for this minute, not for something in the future. We have nothing to do with the 'afterwards' of obedience. If we have a further end in view, we do not pay sufficient attention to the immediate present; if we realize that obedience is the end, then each moment as it comes is precious.

Jesus Christ can afford to be misunderstood; we cannot. Our weakness lies in always wanting to vindicate ourselves.

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

Get into the habit of saying, ''Speak, Lord,'' and life will become a romance.

The great thing about faith in God is that it keeps a man undisturbed in the midst of disturbance.

Reflected peace is the proof that you are right with God because you are at liberty to turn your mind to Him.

Every God-given vision will become real if we will only have patience.
