Will Lewis
William Lewis or Willie Lewis may refer to:...
pain opportunity men
We can ignore even pleasure. But pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world....No doubt pain as God's megaphone is a terrible instrument; it may lead to final and unrepented rebellion. But it gives the only opportunity the bad man can have for amendment. it removes the veil; it plants the flag of truth within the fortress of the rebel soul.
reality self giving
That fierce imprisonment in the self is but the obverse of the self-giving which is absolute reality.
country desire alive
I must keep alive in myself the desire for my true country, which I shall not find till after death.
book endless products
I am a product [...of] endless books.
echoes soul doubt
All the things that have ever deeply possessed your soul have been but hints of it, tantalizing glimpses, promises never quite fulfilled, echoes that died away just as they caught your ear. But if it should really become manifest - if there ever came an echo that did not die away but swelled into the sound itself - you would know it. Beyond all possibility of doubt you would say 'Here at last is the thing I was made for.'
country art flower
For they (art and music) are not the thing itself; they are only the scent of a flower we have not found, the echo of a tune we have not heard, news from a country we have never yet visited.
house imagine
Imagine yourself as a living house.
prayer doe change-god
Prayer does not change God; it changes me.
mean humility conceited
If anyone would like to acquire humility, I can, I think, tell him the first step. The first step is to realize that one is proud. And a biggish step, too. At least, nothing whatever can be done before it. If you think you are not conceited, it means that you are very conceited indeed.
order house-of-cards trying
God has not been trying an experiment on my faith or love in order to find out their quality. He knew it already. It was I who didn't. In this trial He makes us occupy the dock, the witness box, and the bench all at once. He always knew that my temple was a house of cards. His only way of making me realize the fact was to knock it down.
faith inspiration years
Holiness is irresistible. If even 10% of the world's population had it the whole world would be converted and happy before the year's end.
spiritual men forever
Once a man is united to God, how could he not live forever?
love-you love-is vulnerable
To love is to be vulnerable....
atheist flower trying
A creature revolting against a creator is revolting against the source of his own powers-including even his power to revolt...It is like the scent of a flower trying to destroy the flower.
