Don't trust to hold God's hand; let Him hold yours. Let Him do the holding, and you the trusting.

Ed Cole

The desire of love is to give. The desire of lust is to get.

Francois Fenelon

To pray is to desire; but it is to desire what God would have us desire.

John of Kronstadt

When you say a prayer, He (Holy Spirit) is in every word of it, and like a Holy Fire, penetrates each word.

Horatius Bonar

Thy will, not mine, 0 Lord, However dark it be! Lead me by Thine own hand, Choose out the path for me. I dare not choose my lot; I would not, if I might; Choose Thou for me, my God; so shall I walk aright.

Thomas a Kempis

Every man naturally desires knowledge; but what good is knowledge without fear of God? Indeed a humble rustic who serves God is better than a proud intellectual who neglects his soul to study the course of the stars.

Hannah Hurnard

In all the world only one thing really mattered, to do the will of the One she followed and loved, no matter what it involved or cost.

John Raleigh Mott

The world asks, How much does he give? Christ asks why does he give?

John Bunyan

We know not the matter of the things for which we should pray, neither the object to whom we pray, nor the medium by or through whom we pray; none of these things know we, but by the help and assistance of the Spirit.
