Careful for nothing, prayerful for everything, thankful for anything.
More depends on my walk than talk.
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
A man can counterfeit love, he can counterfeit faith, he can counterfeit hope and all the other graces, but it is very difficult to counterfeit humility.
'Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the Word of God' (Rom. 10:17). That is whence faith comes. It is not for me to sit down and wait for faith to come stealing over me with a strong sensation, but is for me to take God at His Word.
God never made a promise that was too good to be true.
A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian... and most of all, his family ought to know.
If we do not love one another, we certainly shall not have much power with God in prayer.
A holy life will produce the deepest impression. Lighthouses blow no horns; they only shine.
Grace isn't a little prayer you chant before receiving a meal. It's a way to live. The law tells me how crooked I am. Grace comes along and straightens me out.

I never saw a fruit-bearing Christian who was not a student of the Bible.
The object of the Bible is not to tell how good men are, but how bad men can become good.

I firmly believe a great many prayers are not answered because we are not willing to forgive someone.
When a man is not deeply convicted of sin, it is a pretty sure sign that he has not truly repented. Experience has taught me that men who have very slight conviction of sin sooner or later lapse back into their old life.
I like my way of doing things better than your way of not doing them.
If a man just stops to think what he has to praise God for, he will find there is enough to keep him singing praises for a week.
I cannot convert men; I can only proclaim the Gospel
There is no true prayer without confession. As long as we have unconfessed sin in our soul, we are not going to have power with God in prayer. He says if we regard iniquity in our hearts, He will not hear us, much less answer. As long as we are living in any known sin, we have no power in prayer. God is not going to hear it.
