Image
Our actions are the results of our intentions and our intelligence.

Image
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
Image
We must be willing to be guided of God, not merely now and then, but as a life proposition.
E. Stanley Jones
Image
If the Holy Spirit can take over the subconscious with our consent and cooperation, then we have almighty Power working at the basis of our lives, then we can do anything we ought to do, go anywhere we ought to go, and be anything we ought to be.

Faith is not merely you holding on to God- it is God holding on to you

Image
When you pray, you begin to feel the sense of being sent.
E. Stanley Jones
Image
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
Image
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
Image
The one supreme business of life is to find God's plan for your life and live it
E. Stanley Jones
Image
Prayer means that the total you is praying. Your whole being reaches out to God, and God reaches down to you.

Image
In conversion you are not attached primarily to an order, nor to an institution, nor a movement, nor a set of beliefs, nor a code of action - you are attached primarily to a Person, and secondarily to these other things.

Image
If you find something that gets hold of you in the Word, pass it on to somebody that very day.

Very often when I haven't faith in my faith, I have to have faith in His faith. He makes me believe in myself and my possibilities, when I simply can't. I have to rise to His faith in me.
