prayer praying harder
The less I pray, the harder it gets; the more I pray, the better it goes.
clothes christ fullness
Let us not flutter too high, but remain by the manger and the swaddling clothes of Christ, 'in whom dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.'
music long singing
As long as we live there is never enough singing.
humanity understanding flesh
The mystery of the humanity of Christ, that he sunk himself into our flesh, is beyond all human understanding.
prayer believe exercise
The believing man hath the Holy Ghost; and where the Holy Ghost dwelleth, He will not suffer a man to be idle, butstirreth him up to all exercises of piety and godliness, and of true religion, to the love of God, to the patient suffering of afflictions, to prayer, to thanksgiving, and the exercise of charity towards all men.
music hate men
I have no pleasure in any man who despises music. It is no invention of ours: it is a gift of God. I place it next to theology. Satan hates music: he knows how it drives the evil spirit out of us.
christmas children angel
Good news from heaven the angels bring, Glad tidings to the earth they sing: To us this day a child is given, To crown us with the joy of heaven.
grace christ righteousness
Let Christ's righteousness and grace, not yours, be your refuge.
church going-to-church irony
The irony is I stopped going to church a few weeks later.
hands body servant
It is not I that smite, stab, and slay, but God and my prince, for my hand and my body are now their servants.
practice divinity use
Divinity consists in use and practice, not in speculation.
feelings want done
God wants our conscience to be certain and sure that it is pleasing to Him. This cannot be done if the conscience is led by its own feelings, but only if it relies on the Word of God.
religious lying eye
Therefore be on your guard against the Jews, knowing that wherever they have their synagogues, nothing is found but a den of devils in which sheer selfglory, conceit, lies, blasphemy, and defaming of God and men are practiced most maliciously and veheming his eyes on them.
valentines-day love-is essence
Love is an image of God, and not a lifeless image, but the living essence of the divine nature which beams full of all goodness.
