The one concern of the devil is to keep Christians from praying. He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, and prayer-less religion. He laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray.

If you're successful, don't crow. If you're defeated, don't croak.

Compassion costs. It is easy enough to argue, criticize and condemn, but redemption is costly, and comfort draws from the deep. Brains can argue, but It takes heart to comfort.

The Christian religion is hopeless without the Holy Ghost.

There is no better way to serve others than to pray for them. There is nothing about which I do not pray. I go over all my life in the presence of God. All my problems are solved there.

The root-trouble of the present distress is that the Church has more faith in the world and the flesh than in the Holy Ghost.

Passion does not compensate for ignorance.
