Put together all the tenderest love you know of, multiply it by infinity, and you will begin to see glimpses of the love and grace of God.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Image
You must hand yourself and all your inward experiences, your temptations, your temperament, your frames and feelings, all over into the care of your God, and leave them there. He made you and therefore He understands you, and knows how to manage you, and you must trust Him to do it.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Image
We must take our troubles to the Lord, but we must do more than that, we must leave them there.

Image
I find that every soul that has travelled on this highway of holiness for any length of time, has invariably cut loose from its old moorings.

Let me advise thee not to talk of thyself as being old. There is something in Mind Cure, after all, and if thee continually talks of thyself as being old, thee may perhaps bring on some of the infirmities of age. At least I would not risk it if I were thee.

Image
God's slavation is not a purchase to be made, nor wages to be earned, nor a summit to be climbed, nor a task to be accomplished but it is simply and only a gift to be accepted, and can only be accepted by faith.

Image
Christians, who have given themselves into the care and keeping of the Lord Jesus, still continue to bend beneath the weight of their burden, and often go weary and heavy-laden throughout the whole length of their journey.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Image
This way of seeing our Father in everything makes life one long thanksgiving and gives a rest of heart, and, more than that, a gayety of spirit, that is unspeakable.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Image
You have trusted Him as your dying Savior now trust Him as your living Savior. Just as much as He came to deliver you from future punishment did He also come to deliver you from present bondage. Just as truly as He came to bear your stripes for you has He come to live your life for you.

Image
Faith, like sight is nothing apart from God. You might as well shut your eyes and look inside, and see whether you have sight as to look inside to discover whether you have faith.

Image
Nothing else but seeing God in everything can make us loving and patient with those who annoy us. When we realize that they are only the instruments for accomplishing His purpose in our lives, we will actually be able to thank them [inwardly] for the blessings they bring us.

Of all hateful occupations, housekeeping is to my mind the most hateful.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Image
If the Lord sets you to guard a lonely post in perfect stillness from all active work, you ought to be just as content as to be in the midst of the active warfare. It is no virtue to love the Master's work better than the Master's will.

Nothing else is needed to quiet all your fears, but just this, that GOD IS.

We were made to be human beings here, and when people try to be anything else, they generally get into some sort of scrapes.
Hannah Whitall Smith
Image
If we will only surrender ourselves utterly to the Lord, and will trust Him perfectly, we shall find our souls mounting up with wings as eagles to the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, where earthly annoyances or sorrows have no power to disturb us.
