life spiritual prayer
A satisfying prayer life elevates and purifies every act of body and mind and integrates the entire personality into a single spiritual unit. In the long pull we pray only as well as we live.
life christian christian-life
If you have believed but not obeyed, you have postponed your Christian life.
god long moral
We get our moral bearings by looking at God. We must begin with God. We are right when, and only when, we stand in a right position relative to God, and we are wrong so far and so long as we stand in any other position.
thinking holiness today
Whatever God felt about anything, He still feels. Whatever He thought about anyone, He still thinks. Whatever He approved, He still approves. Whatever He condemned, He still condemns. Today we have what they call the relativity of morals. But remember this God never changes. Holiness and righteousness are conformity to the will of God. And the will of God never changes for moral creatures.
motivation inspiration heart
Love is both a principle and an emotion; it is something both felt and willed. It is capable of almost infinite degrees. Love in the human heart may begin so modestly as to be hardly perceptible and go on to become a raging torrent that sweeps its possessor before it in total helplessness.
love ambition men
Let the average man be put to the proof on the question of who is above, and his true position will be exposed. Let him be forced into making a choice between God and money, between God and men, between God and personal ambition, God and self, God and human love, and God will take second place every time.
christian real order
A real Christian in an odd number anyway. He feels supreme love for One whom he has never seen, talks familiarly every day to Someone he cannot see, expects to go to heaven on the virtue of Another, empties himself in order to be full, admits he is wrong so he can be declared right, goes down in order to get up, is strongest when he is weakest, richest when he is poorest, and happiest when he feels worst. He dies so he can live, forsakes in order to have, gives away so he can keep, sees the invisible, hears the inaudible, and knows that which passes knowledge.
god christian religious
To truly know God we must long for Him without any other motive than reaching God Himself.
god christian religious
Listen to no man who has not listened to God.
self gone whispering
Our self-trust is such a subtle thing that it still comes around whispering to us even after we are sure it is gone.
jesus mercy christ
God's mercy is boundless, free and, through Jesus Christ our Lord, available to us now in our present situation.
want matter gods-will
The only fear I have is to fear to get out of the will of God. Outside of the will of God, there's nothing I want, and in the will of God there's nothing I fear, for God has sworn to keep me in His will. If I'm out of his will that's another matter. But if I'm in His will, He's sworn to keep me.
beautiful apples gnarly
The fruit is what really matters, not how gnarly or beautiful the apple tree is.
sunday shapes worship
If in our Saturday pursuits we're far from God's presence, we're not in very good shape to worship Him on Sunday.
