Perhaps the most dangerous place for a Christian to be is in safety and comfort.

We'd worked so hard for God's favor, yet it seemed God was still waiting for some extra labor on our part, and it was up to my father to figure out what.

Just as faith without works is dead, so also works without faith.

Do not fear to tell Jesus that you love Him even without feeling it. That is the way to force Jesus to help you, to carry you like a little child too feeble to walk.

It is love that asks, that seeks, that knocks, that finds, and that is faithful to what it finds.

God is displeased at the diffidence of souls who love Him sincerely and whom He Himself loves.

Before we can know God and understand his great plan it is first necessary for us to believe that he exists and that he rewards all who diligently seek him.

Too often we think of religion as a far-off, mysteriously run bureaucracy to which we apply for assistance when we feel the need. We go to a local branch office and direct the clerk (sometimes called a pastor) to fill out our order for God. Then we go home and wait for God to be delivered to us according to the specifications that we have set down. But that is not the way it works. And if we thought about it for two consecutive minutes, we would not want it to work that way.

We know very well that we are not set right with God by rule-keeping but only through personal faith in Jesus Christ.

It pays to take life seriously; things work out when you trust in GOD.

Our faith is released as we say, pray and do the Word.

I could not limit my values and pursuits to what makes others comfortable. Being possessed by a promise I live without options. I will spend the rest of my life exploring what could happen through the life of one who is willing to cultivate the God-given appetite to see impossibilities bow to the name of Jesus.
