So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
John 8:36
The English Standard Version
For worship is a thirsty land crying out for rain,
It is a candle in the act of being kindled,
It is a drop in quest of the ocean,
It is a voice in the night calling for help,
It is a soul standing in awe before the mystery of the universe,
It is time flowing into eternity,
A man climbing the altar stairs to God.

Hugh Blair
A man’s pride will bring him low, But a humble spirit will obtain honor.
Proverbs 29:23

There is a wealth of unexpressed love in the world. It is one of the chief causes of sorrow evoked by death: what might have been said or might have been done that never can be said or done.

As the prudent vintager eats only ripe grapes, and gathers not those which are green, so the eyes of a wise man rests only upon the virtue in others; whereas the eyes of the fool seeks only to discover in his neighbor vices and defects.
John Climacus
Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit; and there are varieties of service, but the same Lord; and there are varieties of activities, but it is the same God who empowers them all in everyone. To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.
1 Corinthians 12:4-7
The English Standard Version
God could not have chosen anyone less qualified, or more of a sinner, than myself. And so, for this wonderful work He intends to perform through us, He selected me—for God always chooses the weak and the absurd, and those who count for nothing.

The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

A great many people are always ready to pray when the devil gets them into trouble; but when they get out of trouble they soon forget God.

When I am with those whose consciences bother them easily, I don’t act as though I know it all and don’t say they are foolish; the result is that they are willing to let me help them. Yes, whatever a person is like, I try to find common ground with him so that he will let me tell him about Christ and let Christ save him. I do this to get the Gospel to them and also for the blessing I myself receive when I see them come to Christ.
1 Corinthians 9:22-23
The Living Bible
When a man told the clergyman he disapproved of organized religion, the latter assured him that his was the most disorganized one available.
