If you can really make a man believe you love him, you have won him; and if I could only make people really believe that God loves them, what a rush we would see for the kingdom of God!
If we have Christ with us, we can do all things. Let us not be thinking how weak we are. Let us lift up our eyes to Him and think of Him as our Elder Brother who has all power given to Him in Heaven and on earth. He says, ‘Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.’
There are many of us that are willing to do great things for the Lord, but few of us are willing to do little things.
I know the Bible is inspired because it inspires me.

Careful for nothing, prayerful for everything, thankful for anything.
Attitudes determine our actions, for good or bad.
Never think that Jesus commanded a trifle, nor dare to trifle with anything He has commanded.
The Bible without the Holy Spirit is a sundial by moonlight.
A great many people are trying to make peace, but that has already been done. God has not left it for us to do; all we have to do is to enter into it.
The best way to show that a stick is crooked is not to argue about it or to spend time denouncing it, but to lay a straight stick alongside it.

I have had more trouble with myself than with any other man I have ever met.
If this world is going to be reached, I am convinced that it must be done by men and women of average talent.
The voice of sin is loud, but the voice of forgiveness is louder.
Some men’s prayers need to be cut short at both ends and set on fire in the middle.
There is no greater honour than to be the instrument in God’s hands of leading one person out of the kingdom of Satan into the glorious light of Heaven.
More depends on my walk than talk.
