Religion Fails If It Cannot Speak To

Christian Freedom Does Not Mean Being Free To Do As We Like; It Means Being Free To Do As We Ought.

The Greatest Thing Is A Life Of Obedience In The Routine Things Of Everyday Life. No Amount Of Fine Feeling Can Take The Place Of Faithful Doing.

God Himself Took This Human Flesh Upon Him.

So Often We Have A Kind Of Vague, Wistful Longing That The Promises Of Jesus Should Be True. The Only Way Really To Enter Into Them Is To Believe Them With The Clutching Intensity Of A Drowning Man.

We Are Trying Not So Much To Make God Listen To Us As To Make Ourselves Listen To Him; We Are Trying Not To Persuade God To Do What We Want, But To Find Out What He Wants Us To Do. It So Often Happens That In Prayer We Are Really Saying, 'thy Will Be Changed,' When We Ought To Be Saying, 'thy Will Be Done.' The First Object Of Prayer Is Not So Much To Speak To God As To Listen To Him.
