“If it be good to come under the love of God once, surely it is good to keep ourselves there. And yet how reluctant we are!”
“Awake, my soul! Why should I give hours and days any longer to the vain world, when there is such a world of misery at my very door? Lord, put thine own strength in me; confirm every good resolution; forgive my past long life of uselessness and folly.”
“If we are growing holier, we are growing kinder.”

“Let us be as watchful after the victory as before the battle.”
“It is not opinions that man needs: it is TRUTH. It is not theology; it is God. It is not religion: it is Christ. It is not literature and science; but the knowledge of the free love of God in the gift of His only-begotten Son.”
