We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.

Don't forget to pray today because God did not forget to wake you up this morning.

When a man is at his wits' end it is not a cowardly thing to pray, it is the only way he can get in touch with Reality.

Am I as spontaneously kind to God as I used to be, or am I only expecting God to be kind to me? Am I full of the little things that cheer His heart over me, or am I whimpering because things are going hardly with me? There is no joy in the soul that has forgotten what God prizes.

It is impossible to get exhausted in work for God. We get exhausted because we try to do God’s work in our own way.

There have been prophets and students who handle the Bible like a child’s box of bricks; they explain to us the design and structure and purpose; but as time goes on things do not work out in their way at all. They have mistaken the scaffolding for the structure, while all the time God is working out His purpose with a great and undeterred patience.
