Perception of ideas, rather than the storing of them, should be the aim of education.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The widest thing in the universe is not space it is the potential capacity of the human heart. Being made in the image of God, it is capable of almost unlimited extension in all directions. And one of the world's greatest tragedies is that we allow our hearts to shrink until there is room in them for little besides ourselves.

God wants the whole person and He will not rest till He gets us in entirety. No part of the man will do (101) - The Pursuit of God
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.

We are called not to adjust ourselves to each other, but to adjust ourselves to God.
