How many people would like to get up in a social prayer-meeting to say a few words for Christ, but there is such a cold spirit of criticism in the church that they dare not do it.

If you do not feel a fervent love and profound pity for humanity, be assured that the gift of Christian eloquence has been denied you. You will not win souls, neither will you acquire that most excellent of earthly sovereignties - sovereignty over human hearts....Love is irresistible.

A great many people wonder why it was that Christ did not come at once to Martha and Mary, whom He loved, whenever He heard of their affliction. It was to try them, and it is the same with His dealings toward us. If He seems not to come to us in our affliction, it is only to test us.

There are many of us that are willing to do great things for the Lord, but few of us are willing to do little things.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Salvation is worth working for. It is worth a man's going round the world on his hands and knees, climbing its mountains, crossing its valleys, swimming its rivers, going through all manner of hardship in order to attain it. But we do not get it in that way. It is to him who believes.

Character is what you are in the dark.

Moses spent forty years in the king's palace thinking that he was somebody then he lived forty years in the wilderness finding out that without GOD he was a nobody finally he spent forty more years discovering how a nobody with GOD can be a somebody.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
Spread out your petition before God, and then say, Thy will, not mine, be done. The sweetest lesson I have learned in God's school is to let the Lord choose for me.
Dwight L. Moody

When God gave Christ to this world, He gave the best He had, and He wants us to do the same.
Dwight L. Moody

When a man has no strength, if he leans on God, he becomes powerful.
Dwight L. Moody
Image
If God tells us to do a thing we are to do it if He tells us to believe a thing, we are to believe it we are to have faith in God. Have faith in God, and if God tells you to believe a thing believe it, and then you will have peace and confidence and joy.

The grand question of life is, Is my name written in heaven?

God has two thrones, on in the highest heavens, the other in the lowliest heart.
Dwight L. Moody

I believe the religion of Christ covers the whole man. Why shouldn't a man play baseball or lawn-tennis? ... Don't imagine that you have got to go into a cave to be consecrated, and stay there all your life. Whatever you take up, take it up with all your heart.
