We wonder why we don't have faith the answer is, faith is confidence in the character of God and if we don't know what kind of God God is, we can't have faith.

When the eyes of the soul looking out meet the eyes of God looking in, heaven has begun right here on earth.

To pray without expectation is to misunderstand the whole concept of prayer and relationship with God.

If in our Saturday pursuits we're far from God's presence, we're not in very good shape to worship Him on Sunday.

Religion today is not transforming people rather it is being transformed by the people. It is not raising the moral level of society it is descending to society's own level, and congratulating itself that it has scored a victory because society is smilingly accepting its surrender.

When religion has said its last word, there is little that we need other than God Himself. The evil habit of seeking God-and effectively prevents us from finding God in full revelation. In the and lies our great woe. If we omit the and we shall soon find God, and in Him we shall find that for which we have all our lives been secretly longing.

We are often hindered from giving up our treasures to the Lord out of fear for their safety this is especially true when those treasures are loved relatives and friends. But we need have no such fears. Our Lord came not to destroy but to save. Everything is safe which we commit to Him, and nothing is really safe which is not so committed.

The only Christian you want to listen to is the one who gives you more of a hunger for God.

God wants us to worship Him. He doesn't need us, for He couldn't be a self-sufficient God and need anything or anybody, but He wants us. When Adam sinned it was not he who cried, 'God, where art Thou?' It was God who cried, 'Adam, where art thou?'

Nothing bothers the devil more than a Christian delighting in God’s presence.

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.

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.

There is scarcely anything so dull and meaningless as Bible doctrine taught for its own sake. Truth divorced from life is not truth in its Biblical sense, but something else and something less.

The best preparation for worship is not a rehearsal, but surrender.

If you want to be holy then you must give time to God and not just intend to.

The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him. The heaviest obligation lying upon the Christian Church today is to purify and elevate her concept of God until it is once more worthy of Him.

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