Endurance is not just the ability to bear a hard thing, but to turn it into glory.

Prayer is not a way of making use of God; prayer is a way of offering ourselves to God in order that He should be able to make use of us. It may be that one of our great faults in prayer is that we talk too much and listen too little. When prayer is at its highest we wait in silence for God's voice to us; we linger in His presence for His peace and His power to flow over us and around us; we lean back in His everlasting arms and feel the serenity of perfect security in Him.

When we love anyone with our whole hearts, life begins when we are with that person; it is only in their company that we are really and truly alive.

Love always involves responsibility, and love always involves sacrifice. And we do not really love Christ unless we are prepared to face His task and to take up His Cross. . . .

In the time we have it is surely our duty to do all the good we can to all the people we can in all the ways we can.

If a man fights his way through his doubts to the conviction that Jesus Christ is Lord, he has attained to a certainty that the man who unthinkingly accepts things can never reach.

There are two great days in a person's life -- the day we are born and the day we discover why.

We will often find compensation if we think more of what life has given us and less about what life has taken away.

It has always been fairly safe to talk about God; it is when we start to talk about men that the trouble starts. And yet the fact remains that there is no conceivable way of proving that we love God other than by loving men. And there is no conceivable way of proving that we love men than by doing something for those who most need help.

But the best definition of it is to say that heaven is that state where we will always be with Jesus, and where nothing will separate us from Him any more

The awful importance of this life is that it determines eternity.

We may not understand how the spirit works; but the effect of the spirit on the lives of men is there for all to see; and the only unanswerable argument for Christianity is a Christian life. No man can disregard a religion and a faith and a power which is able to make bad men good. . .

Religion fails if it cannot speak to men as they are.

When a man undergoes treatment from a doctor, he does not need to know the way in which the drug works on his body in order to be cured. There is a sense in which Christianity is like that. At the heart of Christianity there is a mystery, but it is not the mystery of intellectual appreciation; it, the mystery of redemption.

God himself took this human flesh upon him.
