To be used of God. Is there anything more encouraging, more fulfilling? Perhaps not, but there is something more basic: to meet with God. To linger in His presence, to shut out the noise of the city and, in quietness, give Him the praise He deserves. Before we engage ourselves in His work, let’s meet Him in His Word… in prayer… in worship.
Intimacy with God
Graham Cooke
Sometimes God isn’t quick with His answers to our questions because He likes having a conversation with us.
Arthur Tappan (A. T.) Pierson
It is in the deepest darkness of the starless midnight that men learn how to hold on to the hidden Hand most tightly and how that Hand holds them; that He sees where we do not, and knows the way He takes; and though the way be to us a roundabout way, it is the right way.
Chris Cruz
We spend time with Jesus to reorient ourselves in order to live our life well. This isn’t about charging your battery and draining it throughout the day. We don’t start to become then drained. The goal is to remain full.
Alexander MacLaren
There are diversities of operations, but it is the same breath of God, which sometimes blows in the softest pianissimo that scarcely rustles the summer woods in the leafy month of June, and sometimes storms in wild tempest that dashes the seas against the rocks. So this mighty life-giving Agent moves in gentleness and yet in power, and sometimes swells and rises almost to tempest, but is ever the impelling force of all that is strong and true and fair in Christian hearts and lives.
Samuel Logan Brengle
I praise him! I adore him! I love him! My whole being is his for time and eternity. I am not my own. He can do with me as he pleases for I am his. I know that what he chooses must work out for my eternal good. He is too wise to make mistakes and too good to do me evil. I trust him, I trust him, I trust him!

God’s love manifest through the sunrise and sunset, the mountain and the valley, the tree and the flower, the roar of the beast and the song of the bird. Through your heartbeat and your breathing, in His care for you and His supply of your needs, in taking care of you and watching over you. The Bible clearly declares His love when He says: ‘I have loved you with an everlasting love.’

A W Tozer
We must not get the impression that the Christian life is one continuous conflict, one unbroken irritating struggle against the world, the flesh and the devil. A thousand times no. A heart that learns to die with Christ soon knows the blessed experience of rising with Him, and all the world’s persecutions cannot still the high note of holy joy that springs up in the soul that has become the dwelling place of the Holy Spirit.
A. W. Tozer
We need never shout across the spaces to an absent God. He is nearer than our soul, closer than our most secret thoughts.
Donna Ghazanfari
God knows you. He knows what makes you act and think and be the person that you are. He loves all of you. He doesn’t need you to love Him because that’s the right thing to do. He wants to love you so well that you find Him irresistible and want to be with Him all the time. And when His love penetrates the deep deep hurts inside you, you can’t help but fall in love with Him over and over again. He is love.
