christian spiritual trying
What we need as Christians is to be able to feed ourselves. How many there are who sit helpless and listless, with open mouths, hungry for spiritual things, and the minister has to try to feed them, while the Bible is a feast prepared, into which they never venture.
christian people trying
A great many people wonder why it was that Christ did not come at once to Martha and Mary, whom He loved, whenever He heard of their affliction. It was to try them, and it is the same with His dealings toward us. If He seems not to come to us in our affliction, it is only to test us.
christian heart trying
You might as well try to hear without ears or breathe without lungs, as to try to live a Christian life without the Spirit of God in your heart.
funeral trying four
I hunted all through the four Gospels trying to find one of Christ's funeral sermons, but I couldn't find any. I found He broke up every funeral He ever attended! Death couldn't exist where He was.

Give me a man who says, ''This one thing I do,'' and not, ''These fifty things, I dabble in.

I have had more trouble with myself than with any other man I've met.

Next to the might of God, the serene beauty of a holy life is the most powerful influence of good in all the world

The Son of God passed by the mansions and went down in a manger that He might sympathize with the lowly.
mistake believe heart
I believe this is a mistake a great many of us are making; we are trying to do God's work with the grace God gave us ten years ago. We say, if it is necessary, we will go on with the same grace. Now, what we want is a fresh supply, a fresh anointing and fresh power, and if we seek it, and seek it with all our hearts, we will obtain it.
facts christ fountain
The fact is, we are leaky vessels, and we have to keep right under the fountain all the time to keep full of Christ, and so have fresh supply.
jesus prayer heart
Let us pray, and as we pray, let us make room for Jesus in our hearts.
eye tears topics
No one should ever preach on the topic of hell without a tear in his eye.
inspiring christian saws
I never saw a fruit-bearing Christian who was not a student of the Bible.
responsibility men people
Some people come to me and say, "Mr. Moody, don't you feel a great responsibility when you come before an audience like this - don't you feel a great weight upon your shoulders?" "Well." I say, "no; I cannot convert men; I can only proclaim the Gospel.
