In souls filled with love, the desire to please God is continual prayer.
John Wesley
Image
Beware you be not swallowed up in books! An ounce of love is worth a pound of knowledge.
John Wesley
Image
Though we cannot think alike, may we not love alike? May we not be of one heart, though we are not of one opinion? Without all doubt, we may. Herein all the children of God may unite, notwithstanding these smaller differences.
John Wesley
Image
Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can.
John Wesley

John Wesley
Image
I look on all the world as my parish thus far I mean, that, in whatever part of it I am, I judge it meet, right, and my bounden duty, to declare unto all that are willing to hear, the glad tidings of salvation.
John Wesley
Image
I'd had the quintessential liberal arts experience, and I came out of college not having a clue of what to do.
John Wesley

There is no love of God without patience, and no patience without lowliness and sweetness of spirit.
John Wesley
Image
Do no harm. Do good. Stay in love with God.
John Wesley
Image
You have nothing to do but to save souls. Therefore spend and be spent in this work. And go not only to those that need you, but to those that need you most. It is not your business to preach so many times, and to take care of this or that society but to save as many souls as you can to bring as many sinners as you possibly can to repentance.
John Wesley
Image
If I had 300 men who feared nothing but God, hated nothing but sin, and were determined to know nothing among men but Jesus Christ and Him crucified, I would set the world on fire.
John Wesley
Image
Catch on fire and people will come for miles to see you burn.
John Wesley
Image
I am never in a hurry, because I never undertake more work than I can go through with perfect calmness of spirit.
John Wesley
Image
The wicked will gnaw their tongues for anguish and pain they will curse God and look upwards. There the dogs of hell, pride, malice, revenge, rage, horror, despair, continually devout them.
John Wesley
