We are chosen for joy. However hard the Christian way, it is both in the traveling and in the goal, the way of joy.

There is no joy in the world like the joy of bringing one soul to Christ.

The word grace emphasizes at one and the same time the helpless poverty of man and the limitless kindness of God.

For the Christian, heaven is where Jesus is. We do not need to speculate on what heaven will be like. It is enough to know that we will be for ever with Him.

Jesus’ coming is the final and unanswerable proof that God cares.

I thank you for my friends, for those who understand me better than I understand myself. For those who know me at my worst, and still like me. For those who have forgiven me when I had no right to expect to be forgiven. Help me to be as true to my friends as I would wish them to be to me.

Instead of our petulant, fretful, irritable human hastiness we should cultivate in our souls the patience which has learned to wait on God.
