America is laughing her way to Hell.

Faith is not a once-done act, but a continuous gaze of the heart at the Triune God.

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

Image
Most of us go through life praying a little, planning a little, jockeying for position, hoping but never being quite certain of anything, and always secretly afraid that we will miss the way. This is a tragic waste of truth and never gives rest to the heart.

We can seek God and find him! God is knowable, touchable, hearable, seeable, with the mind, the hands, the ears and the eyes of the inner man.

God is raising up His heroes and the time will come when they will appear and the world will wonder where they came from.

Image
Peace of heart that is won by refusing to bear the common yoke of human sympathy is a peace unworthy of a Christian. To seek tranquility by stopping our ears to the cries of human pain is to make ourselves not Christian but a kind of degenerate stoic having no relation either to stoicism or Christianity.

Very few things in life matter.

Image
It's not my business to try and make God think like me... but to try, in prayer and penitence, to think like God.

We know nothing like the divine holiness. It stands apart, unique, unapproachable, incomprehensibl e and unattainable... Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He is that standard.
