“Knowing about God is crucially important for the living of our lives. As it would be cruel to an Amazonian tribesmen to fly him to London, put him down without explanation in Trafalgar Square and leave him, as one who knew nothing of English or England, to fend for himself, so we are cruel to ourselves if we try to live in this world without knowing about the God whose world it is and who runs it .The world becomes a strange, mad, painful place, and life in it a disappointing and unpleasant business, for those who do not know about God. Disregard the study of God, and you sentence yourself to stumble and blunder through life blindfold, as it were , with no sense of direction, and no understanding of what surrounds you. This way you can waste your life and lose your soul.”
“Your faith will not fail while God sustains it; you are not strong enough to fall away while God is resolved to hold you.”
“Once you become aware that the main business that you are here for is to know God, most of life's problems fall into place of their own accord.”
“The Puritan ethic of marriage was first to look not for a partner whom you do love passionately at this moment but rather for one whom you can love steadily as your best friend for life, then to proceed with God’s help to do just that.”
“Trying to describe what I do in prayer would be like telling the world how I make love to my wife. ”
“Whatever else in the Bible catches your eye, do not let it distract you from Him.”
