An infinite God can give all of Himself to each of His children. He does not distribute Himself that each may have a part, but to each one He gives all of Himself as fully as if there were no others.

We are in an age of religious complexity. The simplicity which is in Christ is rarely found among us. In its stead are programs, methods, organizations, and a world of nervous activities which occupy time and attention but can never satisfy the longing of the heart.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
Our religious activities should be ordered in such a way as to have plenty of time for the cultivation of the fruits of solitude and silence.

A whole new generation of Christians has come up believing that it is possible to 'accept' Christ without forsaking the world.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
It is either all of Christ or none of Christ! I believe we need to preach again a whole Christ to the world - a Christ who does not need our apologies, a Christ who will not be divided, a Christ who will either be Lord of all or will not be Lord at all!
Aiden Wilson Tozer
