God dwells in eternity but time dwells in God. He has already lived all our tomorrows as He has lived all our yesterdays.

As the excellence of steel is strength, and the excellence of art is beauty, so the excellence of mankind is moral character.

Brother Lawrence expressed the highest moral wisdom when he testified that if he stumbled and fell he turned at once to God and said, 'O Lord, this is what you may expect of me if You leave me to myself.' He then accepted forgiveness, thanked God, and gave himself no further concerns about the matter.

What is wisdom? It is the skill to achieve the perfect means by the perfect ends

A satisfying prayer life elevates and purifies every act of body and mind and integrates the entire personality into a single spiritual unit. In the long pull we pray only as well as we live.

The only cross in all of history that was turned into an altar was the cross on which Jesus Christ died. It was a Roman cross. They nailed Him on it, and God, in His majesty and mystery, turned it into an altar. The Lamb who was dying in the mystery and wonder of God was turned into the Priest who offered Himself. No one else was a worthy offering.

Acquaint thyself with God.

The experiences of men who walked with God in olden times agree to teach that the Lord cannot fully bless the a man until He has first conquered him. The degree of blessing enjoyed by any man will correspond exactly with the completeness of God's victory over him.

In trying to count our many blessings the difficulty is not to find things to count, but to find time to enumerate them all.

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!

The best book is not one that informs merely, but one that stirs the reader up to inform himself.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The author squares man's depravity with still being made in the image of God with this word picture. A vase that has held beautiful roses though now broken, will nevertheless hold something of the fragrance it once contained.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
The history of mankind will probably show that no people has ever risen above its religion, and man's spiritual history will positively demonstrate that no religion has ever been greater than its idea of God.

Truth is a glorious but hard mistress. She never consults, bargains or compromises.
Aiden Wilson Tozer
We might be wise to follow the insight of the enraptured heart rather than the more cautious reasoning of the theological mind.

God doesn't work through us because we're flawless rather, He works through us in spite of our imperfections.

People have faith in 'faith' and largely forget that our confidence is not in the power of faith but in the Person and work of the Savior, Jesus Christ.
