It may well be that the world is denied miracle after miracle and triumph after triumph because we will not bring to Christ what we have and what we are. If, just as we are, we would lay ourselves on the altar of service of Jesus Christ, there is no saying what Christ could do with us and through us.

William BarclayWe are chosen for joy. However hard the Christian way, it is both in the traveling and in the goal, the way of joy.
William BarclayFaith is not only commitment to the promises of Christ; it is also commitment to his demands.
