More quotes by E. Stanley Jones
Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence.
E. Stanley Jones
Prayer is commission. Out of the quietness with God, power is generated that turns the spiritual machinery of the world. When you pray, you begin to feel the sense of being sent, that the divine compulsion is upon you.
E. Stanley Jones
We grow small trying to be great.
E. Stanley Jones
If you don't surrender to Christ, you surrender to chaos.
E. Stanley Jones
If we know how to pray, we know how to live.
E. Stanley Jones
No person is free until he or she is free at the center. When we let go there, we are free indeed. When the self is renounced, then one stands utterly disillusioned, apart, asking for nothing. If anything comes to us, it is all sheer gain. Then life becomes one constant surprise.
E. Stanley Jones
When prayer fades out, power fades out. We are as spiritual as we are prayerful no more, no less.
E. Stanley Jones
I have surrendered to God therefore I surrender to nothing else.
E. Stanley Jones
Your powers are dead or dedicated. If they are dedicated, they are alive with God and tingle with surprising power. If they are saved up, taken care of for their own ends, they are dead.
E. Stanley Jones
Faith is not merely you holding on to God- it is God holding on to you
E. Stanley Jones
The opponent strikes you on your cheek, and you strike him on the heart by your amazing spiritual audacity in turning the other cheek. You wrest the offensive from him by refusing to take his weapons, by keeping your own, and by striking him in his conscience from a higher level. He hits you physically, and you hit him spiritually.
E. Stanley Jones
Prayer is commitment. We don't merely co-operate with God with certain things held back within. We, the total person, co-operate. This means that co-operation equals committment.
E. Stanley Jones
A reduced Christ is the same as a rejected Christ.
E. Stanley Jones
Jesus will meet me today in the person of someone in need-I must not miss him.
E. Stanley Jones
When you pray, you begin to feel the sense of being sent.
E. Stanley Jones
In the prayer time, the battle of the spiritual life is lost or won.
E. Stanley Jones
A road that perhaps more than any other leads to self atrophy is undedicated money.
E. Stanley Jones
The only thing you believe in is the thing you believe in enough to practice. Your creed is your deed.
E. Stanley Jones
A nail-pierced hand holds the sceptre of the universe, and my knees bend before him.
E. Stanley Jones
The conscious mind determines the actions, the unconscious mind determines the reactions and the reactions are just as important as the actions.
