My unrestrained commitment of myself to God gives the Holy Spirit the opportunity to grant to me the holiness of Jesus Christ.
Christianity is not devotion to work, or to a cause, or a doctrine, but devotion to a Person, the Lord Jesus Christ.
We shall find that the spheres God brings us into are not meant to teach us something but to make us something.
Earnestness is not by any means everything; it is very often a subtle form of pious pride because it is obsessed with the method and not with the Master.
Once we see Jesus, the impossible things He does in our lives become as natural as breathing.
Death is God’s delightful way of giving us life.
Trust completely in God, and when He brings you to a new opportunity of adventure, offering it to you, see that you take it.
Service is the overflow which pours from a life filled with love and devotion. But strictly speaking, there is no call to that. Service is what I bring to the relationship and is the reflection of my identification with the nature of God.
The love of God is not created- it is His nature.
Never be hurried out of the relationship of abiding in Him.
Spiritual lust causes me to demand an answer from God, instead of seeking God Himself who gives the answer.
The Cross is the central event in time and eternity, and the answer to all the problems of both.
It is much easier to do something than to trust in God. That is why there are so few fellow workers with God and so many workers for Him. We would far rather work for God than believe in Him.
The central point of the Kingdom of Jesus Christ is a personal relationship with Him, not public usefulness to others.
We can all see God in exceptional things, but it requires the culture of spiritual discipline to see God in every detail.
There are many things that are perfectly legitimate, but if you are going to concentrate on God you cannot do them.
The greatest word of Jesus to His disciples is abandon.
Our Lord never lays down the conditions of discipleship as the conditions of salvation.
It is easy for us to tarnish God’s character because He never argues back; He never tries to defend or vindicate himself.
Watch where Jesus went. The one dominant note in His life was to do His Father’s will. His was not the way of wisdom or of success, but the way of faithfulness.
