"We must admit guilt- rather than hide in 'aristocracy of self righteousness.'"
"Faith is a decision. It is not a deduction from the facts around us. We would not look at the world of today and logically conclude that God loves us. It doesn't always look as thought He does. Faith is certainly not a feeling- feelings don't help much when you're in the lions den or hanging on a cross. Faith is not an instinct. It is not inferred from the happy way things always work. It is an act of the will, a choice, based on the unbreakable word of a God who cannot lie, and who showed us what love and obedience and sacrifice means in the person of Jesus Christ."
"We must go beyond what is merely right."
"To love God is to love his will. It is to wait quietly for life to be measured out by One who knows us though and through. It is to be content with His timing and His wise apportionment."
"It's His song, not ming, that I'm here to sing. It's His will, not mine that I'm here to do."
