Whatever is your best time in the day, give that to communion with God.

J. Hudson Taylor

And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing.  Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.  Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.  Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing.  Then the God of peace will be with you.

Philippians 4:8-9
The New Living Translation

The service of Christ is the business of my life.
The will of Christ is the law of my life.
The presence of Christ is the joy of my life.
The glory of Christ is the crown of my life.

Our prayers often resemble the mischievous tricks of town children, who knock at their neighbor’s houses and then run away; we often knock at heaven’s door and then run off into the spirit of the world; instead of waiting for entrance and answer, we act as if we were afraid of having our prayers answered.

William Williams

he saved us, not because of deeds done by us in righteousness, but in virtue of his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal in the Holy Spirit,

Titus 3:5
The Revised Standard Version

One is given strength to bear what happens to one, but not the 100 and 1 different things that might happen.

The words of the Lord are seeds sown in our hearts by the sower.  They have to fall into our hearts to grow.  Meditation and prayer must water them and obedience keep them in the light.  Thus they will bear fruit for the Lord’s gathering.

George MacDonald

Praise the Lord!  Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens!  Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his excellent greatness!

Psalm 150:1-2
The English Standard Version

Anchor to the throne of God, and then shorten the rope!

The condition of an enlightened mind is a surrendered heart.

Alan Redpath

For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

Psalm 37:9
The New International Version

Dear God, I’d like to make a suggestion, if that’s okay.  Why don’t you have fewer religions so people would get along better?  We just read about the Crusades a long time ago.

I have only missed my morning watch one or twice this term.  I can easily believe that it is next in importance to accepting Christ.  For I know that when I don’t wait upon God in prayer and Bible study, things go wrong.

William Borden

Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

Romans 12:21
The New King James Version

A dear old friend of mine used to say with the truest Christian charity, when he heard any one being loudly condemned for some fault:  “Ah!  Well, yes, it seems very bad to me, because it is not my way of sinning!”

Millions of people in our culture make decisions for Christ, but there is a dreadful attrition rate.  In our kind of culture anything, even news about God, can be sold if it is packaged freshly; but when it loses its novelty, it goes on the garbage heap.  There is a great market for religious experience in our world; there is little enthusiasm for the patient acquisition of virtue, little inclination to sign up for a long apprenticeship.

Eugene Peterson

No ill befalls the righteous, but the wicked are filled with trouble.

Proverbs 12:21
The English Standard Version

Once while Francis of Assisi was hoeing his garden, he was asked, “What would you do if you were suddenly to learn that you were to die at sunset today?”  He replied, “I would finish hoeing my garden.”

Is any one among you suffering?  Let him pray.  Is any cheerful?  Let him sing praise.

A God you understood would be less than yourself.

How few of us could honestly crystallize the aims that guide our life into any single sentence?  We try the impossible feat of riding on two horses at once.  We resolve and retract, and hesitate and compromise.  The ship heads now one way and now another, and that not because we are wisely tacking—that is to say, seeking to reach one point by widely varying courses—but because our hand is so weak on the helm that we drift wherever the wash of the waves and the buffets of the wind carry us.

Alexander MacLaren

The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

Psalm 18:2
The Revised Standard Version

It is not fitting, when one is in God’s service, to have a gloomy face or a chilling look.

Francis of Assisi

In the midst of life we are in death.

Book of Common Prayer

But my life is worth nothing to me unless I use it for finishing the work assigned me by the Lord Jesus—the work of telling others the Good News about the wonderful grace of God.

Acts 20:24
The New Living Translation

The best place any Christian can ever be in is to be totally destitute and totally dependent upon God, and know it.
