Thankfulness grows best in the seed-bed of conviction, just as some plants must be placed in the soil in the winter if they are to flower in the summer.

God's guidance will require patience on our part. His leading is not usually a direct assurance, a revelation, but His sovereign controlling of the circumstances of our lives, with the Word of God as our rule. It is therefore, inevitable that the unfolding of His purposes will take time - sometimes a very long time.

The weakest faith gets the same strong Christ as does the strongest faith.

The Father did not require the death of Christ to persuade Him to love us. Christ died because the Father loves us.

We discover the will of God by a sensitive application of Scripture to our own lives.

My security as a Christian does not reside in the strength of my faith but in the indestructibili ty of my Savior.

If you are justified, you can no more be unjustified than Christ can be pulled down from heaven.
