christian christian-inspirational littles
It is better to be a little too strict than too liberal.
christian use great-things
Let us expect that God is going to use us. Let us have courage and go forward, looking to God to do great things.
christian thinking thank-god
As I go into a cemetery I like to think of the time when the dead shall rise from their graves. ... Thank God, our friends are not buried; they are only sown!
character pride intelligent
I know I have a first-rate mind, but that`s no source of pride to me. Intelligent people are a dime a dozen. But I am proud of having character.
mother daughter men
It may be that at this moment every battlement of heaven is alive with the redeemed. There is a sainted mother watching for her daughter. Have you no response to that long hushed voice which has prayed for you so often? And for you, young man, are there no voices there that have prayed for you? And are there none whom you promised once to meet again, if not on earth, in heaven?
men grace forgiving
I thank God that the gospel is to be preached to every creature. There is no man so far gone, but the grace of God can reach him; no man so desperate or black, but He can forgive him.
jesus children father
The dying boy said: "Father, don't you weep for me; when I get to heaven I will go straight to Jesus and tell Him that ever since I can remember you have tried to lead me to Him." I would rather have my children say that of me after I am gone; or if they die before me, I would rather they should take that message to the Master than to have a monument over me reaching to the skies.
believe men agency
You cannot find, I believe, a case in the Bible where a man is converted without God's calling in some human agency--using some human instrument.
christian men drunk
If a man gets drunk and goes out and breaks his leg so that it must be amputated, God will forgive him if he asks it, but he will have to hop around on one leg all his life.
faults trouble fellows
Right now I'm having so much trouble with D.L. Moody that I don't have time to find fault with the other fellow.
christian believe two
I believe Satan exists for two reasons: first, the Bible says so, and second, I've done business with him.
religious temptation return
Temptations are like tramps. Treat them kindly, and they will return bringing others with them. Temptations are never so dangerous as when they come to us in a religious garb.
heart tears world
I never knew up to that time that God loved us so much. This heart of mine began to thaw out; I could not keep back the tears. I just drank it in...I tell you there is one thing that draws above everything else in the world and that is love.
writing names earth
Seeking to perpetuate one's name on earth is like writing on the sand by the seashore; to be perpetual it must be written on eternal shores.
