Lord Jesus, don't let me lie when I say that I love you.....and protect me, for today I could betray you.

You don't love in your enemies what they are, but what you would have them become by your prayers.

Who can map out the various forces at play in one soul? Man is a great depth, O Lord. The hairs of his head are easier by far to count than his feeling, the movements of his heart.

Remember this. When people choose to withdraw far from a fire, the fire continues to give warmth, but they grow cold. When people choose to withdraw far from light, the light continues to be bright in itself but they are in darkness. This is also the case when people withdraw from God.

God is more anxious to bestow his blessings on us than we are to receive them.

Do you desire security? Here you have it. The Lord says to you, "I will never abandon you, I will always be with you." If a good man made you such a promise, you would trust him. God makes it, and do you doubt? Do you seek a support more sure than the word of God, which is infallible? Surely, He has made the promise, He has written it, He has pledged His word for it, it is most certain.

The arrogance is not greatness but swelling; and the swelling seems big but it's not healthy.
