When God wants to move a mountain, he does not take a bar of iron, but he takes a little worm. The fact is, we have too much strength. We are not weak enough. It is not our strength that we want. One drop of God's strength is worth more than all the world.

Dwight L. Moody
Image
A man can no more take in a supply of grace for the future than he can eat enough today to last him for the next 6 months, nor can he inhale sufficient air into his lungs with one breath to sustain life for a week to come. We are permitted to draw upon God's store of grace from day to day as we need it.
Dwight L. Moody

The measure of a man is not how many servants he has but how many men he serves .
Dwight L. Moody
Image
I never yet have known the Spirit of God to work where the Lord's people were divided.
Dwight L. Moody

He is the Rock, His work is perfect: For all His ways are judgment: A God of truth and without iniquity, Just and right is He.

People, when asked if they are Christians, give some of the strangest answers you ever heard. Some will say if you ask them: Well - well - well, I, - I hope I am. Suppose a man should ask me if I am an American. Would I say: Well, I - well, I - I hope I am?
