Quote
God implants Spirit and zeal into our hearts in order to accomplish a work. When the work is done, a quiet rest remains. We do not have to push one another aside because God has prepared our works so that each one can keep out of one another’s way. We only have to take heed that we do His works.

No one can be transferred from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God without a great battle and by the good fight of faith. No one receives full light in a single day. Great faithfulness is required for us to receive more light.

Quote
A longsuffering person will endure where others give up. He always thinks about how God has been longsuffering toward him, and he counts God’s longsuffering as salvation. Longsuffering endures where no one else can endure, and it always hopes for a happy result at the end.
