Jesus Is The Yes To Every Promise

We Are Trying Not So Much To Make God Listen To Us As To Make Ourselves Listen To Him; We Are Trying Not To Persuade God To Do What We Want, But To Find Out What He Wants Us To Do. It So Often Happens That In Prayer We Are Really Saying, 'thy Will Be Changed,' When We Ought To Be Saying, 'thy Will Be Done.' The First Object Of Prayer Is Not So Much To Speak To God As To Listen To Him.

Religion Fails If It Cannot Speak To Men As They Are.

Every Discouraging Sermon Is A Wicked Sermon... There Could Hardly Be A More Un-christian Way Of Living Than To Go About In Such A Way As To Depress And To Discourage Other People.

A Saint Is Someone Whose Life Makes It Easier To Believe In God.

God Does Not Choose A Person For Ease And Comfort And Selfish Joy But For A Task That Will Take All That Head And Heart And Hand Can Bring To It. God Chooses A Man In Order To Use Him.
