Christianity does not think of man finally submitting to the power of God, it thinks of Him as finally surrendering to the love of God. It is not that man's will is crushed, but that man's heart is broken.

Pride is the ground in which all the other sins grow, and the parent from which all the other sins come.

The tragedy of life and of the world is not that men do not know God; the tragedy is that, knowing Him, they still insist on going their own way.

The best way to prepare for the coming of Christ is never to forget the presence of Christ.

It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.

Prayer is not a way of making use of God; prayer is a way of offering ourselves to God in order that He should be able to make use of us.
