Image
The will is a beast of burden. If God mounts it, it wishes and goes as God wills if Satan mounts it, it wishes and goes as Satan wills Nor can it choose its rider... the riders contend for its possession.
Martin Luther

God is ready to give more quickly, and to give more than you ask yea, he offers his treasures if we only take them. It is truly a great shame and a severe chastisement for us Christians that God should still upbraid us for our slothfulness in prayer, and that we fail to let such a rich and excellent promise incite us to pray.

Nothing in the world causes so much misery as uncertainty.
Martin Luther
Image
I think that we've got to see that a riot is the language of the unheard. And, what is it that America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the economic plight of the Negro poor has worsened over the last few years.

Some people need a fig-leaf on their mouths.
Martin Luther
Image
God wants to be praised for nourishing and cherishing, for He cherishes all creatures. He is not only the Creator, but He is also the Sustainer and Nourisher.
Martin Luther
Image
It is impossible for a man to be a Christian without having Christ and if he has Christ he has at the same time all that is in Christ.
Martin Luther

Put thou thy trust in God In duty's path go on Fix on His word thy steadfast eye So shall thy work be done.

I know not the way God leads me, but well do I know my Guide.
