More quotes by Aiden Wilson Tozer
If we take away any of the attributes of God, we do not weaken God but we weaken our concept of God.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.

Pure Christianity, instead of being shaped by its environment, actually stands in sharp opposition to it.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
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.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Whom God would use greatly He will hurt deeply.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
To be entirely safe from the devil's snares the man of God must be completely obedient to the Word of the Lord. The driver on the highway is safe, not when he reads the signs but when he obeys them.

When you kill time, remember that it has no resurrection.

Compare yourself only with Jesus.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We need never shout across the spaces to an absent God. He is nearer than our own soul, closer than our most secret thoughts
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Faith is an organ of knowledge, and love an organ of experience.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The goodness of God is infinitely more wonderful than we will ever be able to comprehend.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Always God’s goodness is the ground of our expectation.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
O God and Father, I repent of my sinful preoccupation with visible things. The world has been too much with me. Thou hast been here and I knew it not. I have been blind to Thy Presence. Open my eyes that I may behold Thee in and around me. For Christ's sake, Amen.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The Bible was written in tears, and to tears it yields its best treasures.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Be hard on yourself and easy on others. Carry your own cross but never lay one on the back of another
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Pseudo faith always arranges a way out to serve in case God fails it. Real faith knows only one way and gladly allows itself to be stripped of any second way or makeshift substitutes. For true faith, it is either God or total collapse.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The world is waiting to hear an authentic voice, a voice from God- not an echo of what others are doing and saying, but an authentic voice.
