God will not permit any troubles to come upon us, unless He has a specific plan by which great blessing can come out of the difficulty.
Peter MarshallIt is better to fail in a cause that will ultimately succeed than to succeed in a cause that will ultimately fail.
Peter MarshallIf God does not enter your kitchen, there is something wrong with your kitchen. If you can't take God into your recreation, there is something wrong with your play. We all believe in the God of the heroic. What we need most these days is the God of the humdrum, the commonplace, the everyday.
Peter MarshallThe use of the right word, the exact word, is the difference between a pencil with a sharp point and a thick crayon.
Peter MarshallWe pray Thee, O Christ, to keep us under the spell of immortality. My we never again think and act as if Thou were dead. Let us more and more come to know Thee as a living Lord who hath promised to them that believe: "Because I live, ye shall live also." Help us to remember that we are praying to the Conqueror of Death, that we may no longer be afraid nor dismayed by the world's problems and threats, since Thou hast overcome the world. In Thy strong name, we ask for Thy living presence and Thy victorious power. Amen.
Peter Marshall
