For the Christ-child who comes is the Master of all; No palace too great, no cottage too small.

Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Pray for powers equal to your tasks.

Get up; repent. Come to God. Get the pattern of your life from Him, and then go about your work and be yourself.

O, do not pray for easy lives.

I would know any man as a Christian, would rejoice to know any man as a Christian, whom Jesus would recognize as a Christian; and Jesus Christ, I am sure, in these old days recognized His followers even if they came after Him with the blindest sight, with the most imperfect recognition and acknowledgment of what He was and of what He could do.

Let every man and woman count himself immortal. Let him catch the revelation of Jesus in his resurrection. Let him say not merely, "Christ is risen," but "I shall rise."
