The less I spent on myself and the more I gave to others, the fuller of happiness and blessing did my soul become.
Learn to move man, through God, by prayer alone
It is not lost time to wait upon God!
We have heard of many people who trusted God too little, but have you ever heard of anyone who trusted Him too much?
The Lord IS my shepherd. Not was, not may be, nor will be. . . is my shepherd on Sunday, is on Monday, and is through every day of the week; is in January, is in December, and every month of the year, is at home, and is in China; is in peace, and is in war; in abundance, and in penury.
Unless there is an element of risk in our exploits for God, there is no need for faith.
I often think that God must have been looking for someone small enough and weak enough for Him to use, and that He found me.
God means just what He says and He will do all that He has promised.
[God] wants you to have something far better than riches and gold, and that is helpless dependence upon Him.
Would that God would make hell so real to us that we cannot rest; heaven so real that we must have men there, Christ so real that our supreme motive and aim shall be to make the Man of Sorrows the Man of Joy by the conversion to him of many.
A little thing is a little thing, but faithfulness in little things is a great thing.

Are you in a hurry, flurried, distressed? Look up! See the Man in the Glory! Let the face of Jesus shine upon you—the face of the Lord Jesus Christ. Is He worried, troubled, distressed? There is no wrinkle on His brow, no least shade of anxiety. Yet the affairs are His as much as yours.
To every toiling, heavy-laden sinner, Jesus says, Come to me and rest. But there are many toiling, heavy-laden believers, too. For them this same invitation is meant. Note well the words of Jesus, if you are heavy-laden with your service, and do not mistake it. It is not, Go, labor on, as perhaps you imagine. On the contrary, it is stop, turn back, Come to me and rest. Never, never did Christ send a heavy laden one to work; never, never did He send a hungry one, a weary one, a sick or sorrowing one, away on any service. For such the Bible only says, Come, come, come.
