Jesus calls us to his rest, and meekness is His method. The meek man cares not at all who is greater than he, for he has long ago decided that the esteem of the world is not worth the effort.

More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
God dwells in His creation and is everywhere indivisibly present in all His works. He is transcendent above all His works even while He is immanent within them.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
God loves us for ourselves. He values our love more than he values galaxies of new created worlds.

When we become too glib in prayer we are most surely talking to ourselves.

Only a disciple can make a disciple.

We can be in our day what the heroes of faith were in their day - but remember at the time they didn't know they were heroes.

No matter what the circumstances, we Christians should keep our heads. God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind. It is a dismal thing to see a son of heaven cringe in terror before the sons of earth.

The main thing is this: we should never blame anyone or anything for our defeats. No matter how evil their intentions may be, they are altogether unable to harm us until we begin to blame them and use them as excuses for our own unbelief.

Worship is to feel in your heart and express in some appropriate manner a humbling but delightful sense of admiring awe and astonished wonder and overpowering love in the presence of that most Ancient Mystery, that Majesty which philosophers call the first cause, but which we call our Father which art in heaven.

The true Church has never sounded out public expectations before launching her mission. Her leaders heard from God, they knew their Lord's will and did it. Their people followed them - sometimes to triumph, oftener to insults and public persecution - and their sufficient reward was the satisfaction of being right in a wrong world!

To regain her lost power the Church must see heaven opened and have a transforming vision of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
In Christ and by Christ, God effects complete self-disclosure , although He shows Himself not to reason but to faith and love. Faith is an organ of knowledge, and love an organ of experience. God came to us in the incarnation in atonement He reconciled us to Himself, and by faith and love we enter and lay hold on Him.

God is more concerned with the state of people's hearts than He is with the state of their feelings.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Trying to be happy without a sense of God’s presence is like trying to have a bright day without the sun.

History is little more than the story of man's sin, and the daily newspaper a running commentary on it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith is not in itself a meritorious act the merit is in the One to Whom it is directed.

To be right with God has often meant to be in trouble with men. This is such a common truth that one hesitates to mention it, yet it appears to have been overlooked by the majority of Christians today.

God's gifts are many His best gift is one. It is the gift of Himself.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Our self-trust is such a subtle thing that it still comes around whispering to us even after we are sure it is gone.

We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum.
