So shall we join the disciples of our Lord, keeping faith in Him in spite of the crucifixion, and making ready, by our loyalty to Him in the days of His darkness, for the time when we shall enter into His triumph in the days of His light.

Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men! Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers. Prayer is not conquering God's reluctance, but taking hold of God's willingness.

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

Charity should begin at home, but should not stay there.

I do not pray for a lighter load, but for a stronger back.
