The Key To Praying With

Lives Of Faith Are The Great Mirror Of The Dependability Of God.

The Really Wonderful Moments Of Joy In This World Are Not The Moments Of Self-satisfaction, But Self-forgetfulness. Standing On The Edge Of The Grand Canyon And Contemplating Your Own Greatness Is Pathological. At Such Moments We Are Made For A Magnificent Joy That Comes From Outside Ourselves.

Sleep Is A Daily Reminder From God That We Are Not God. Once A Day God Sends Us To Bed Like Patients With A Sickness. The Sickness Is A Chronic Tendency To Think We Are In Control And That Our Work Is Indispensable. To Cure Us Of This Disease God Turns Us Into Helpless Sacks Of Sand Once A Day.

The Suffering Of Sickness And The Suffering Of Persecution Have This In Common: They Are Both Intended By Satan For The Destruction Of Our Faith, And Governed By God For The Purifying Of Our Faith... Christ Sovereignly Accomplishes His Loving, Purifying Purpose, By Overruling Satan's Destructive Attempts. Satan Is Always Aiming To Destroy Our Faith; But Christ Magnifies His Power In Weakness.

God Has An Inexhaustible Enthusiasm For The Supremacy Of His Name Among The Nations.
