Aiden Wilson Tozer quotes about
simplicity spirit conquer
Distractions must be conquered or they will conquer us. So let us cultivate simplicity; let us walk in the Spirit...
offering giving offering-to-god
We ought not to be looking for a place to hide, but a place to give ourselves as an offering to God.
ideas greater
No religion has ever been greater than its idea of God.
dying easier crosses
Nothing's easier to talk about than surrendering ourselves and dying on the Cross. Nothing's harder than actually doing it.
men blessing victory
The experiences of men who walked with God in olden times agree to teach that the Lord cannot fully bless the a man until He has first conquered him. The degree of blessing enjoyed by any man will correspond exactly with the completeness of God's victory over him.
soul paradox found
To have found God and still to pursue Him is the soul’s paradox of love.
beautiful men squares
The author squares man's depravity with still being made in the image of God with this word picture. A vase that has held beautiful roses though now broken, will nevertheless hold something of the fragrance it once contained.
heaven dollar-bills dollars
If God takes away from us the old, wrinkled, beat-up dollar bill we have clutched so desperately, it is only because He wants to exchange it for the whole Federal mint, the entire treasury! He is saying to us, 'I have in store for you all the resources of heaven. Help yourself.'
doe convinced knows
I do not know why God does some things, but I am convinced that nothing is accidental in his universe.
faith spring opposites
The Bible recognizes no faith that does not lead to obedience, nor does it recognize any obedience that does not spring from faith. The two are at opposite sides of the same coin.
children eye sea
Between the scribe who has read and the prophet who has seen there is a difference as wide as the sea. We are today overrun with orthodox scribes, but the prophets, where are they? The hard voice of the scribe sounds over evangelicalism, but the Church waits for the tender voice of the saint who has penetrated the veil and has gazed with inward eye upon the Wonder that is God. And yet, thus to penetrate, to push in sensitive living experience into the holy Presence, is a privilege open to every child of God.
god christian religious
Christians should be the boldest people in the world-not cocky and sure of ourselves, but sure of Him.
letting-go ifs
It is God who works in and through us, if only we would let God do His work.
prayer expectations praying
To pray without expectation is to misunderstand the whole concept of prayer and relationship with God.
