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.
William BarclayPrayer 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.
William BarclayThere is a time when to avoid trouble is to store up trouble, and when to seek for a lazy and a cowardly peace is to court a still greater danger.
