The essence of idolatry is the entertainment of thoughts about God that are unworthy of Him. The heaviest obligation lying upon the Christian Church today is to purify and elevate her concept of God until it is once more worthy of Him.

I don't want the world to define God for me. I want the Holy Spirit to reveal God to me.

Most of the world's great souls have been lonely. Loneliness seems to be one price the saint must pay for his saintliness... Always remember: you cannot carry a cross in company. Though a man were surrounded by a vast crowd, his cross is his alone and his carrying of it marks him as a man apart. Society has turned against him; otherwise he would have no cross. No one is a friend to the man with a cross.

The true Christian is one who is kind of sick of this world. If I find anybody who is settled down too snugly into this world, I am made to doubt whether he's ever truly been born again

While we are looking at God we do not see ourselves-blessed riddance.

God's Kingdom isn't divided into areas of important people and areas of little people. In God's sight, everyone's needful.

God's plan will continue on God's schedule.

Leadership requires vision, and whence will vision come except from hours spent in the presence of God in humble and fervent prayer?

As long as we think we own anything, that thing owns us. As soon as we know that we own nothing, then God owns us.
