If I Take Care Of My Character, My Reputation Will Take Care Of Me.

There Is No True Prayer Without Confession. As Long As We Have Unconfessed Sin In Our Soul, We Are Not Going To Have Power With God In Prayer.

A Great Many People Wonder Why It Was That Christ Did Not Come At Once To Martha And Mary, Whom He Loved, Whenever He Heard Of Their Affliction. It Was To Try Them, And It Is The Same With His Dealings Toward Us. If He Seems Not To Come To Us In Our Affliction, It Is Only To Test Us.

If We Have Christ With Us, We Can Do All Things. Let Us Not Be Thinking How Weak We Are. Let Us Lift Up Our Eyes To Him And Think Of Him As Our Elder Brother Who Has All Power Given To Him In Heaven And On Earth. He Says, 'lo, I Am With You Alway, Even Unto The End Of The World.'

How Easy It Is To Work For God When We Are Filled With His Spirit! His Service Is So Sweet, So Delightful; He Is Not A Hard Master. People Talk About Their Being Overworked And Breaking Down. It Is Not So. It Is [over-worry] And Care That Wears People Out. Why Do So Many Workers Break Down? Not From Overwork, But Because There Has Been Friction Of The Machinery; There Hasn't Been Enough Of The Oil Of The Spirit. Great Engines Have Their Machinery So Arranged That Where There Is Friction There Is Oil Dropping On It All The Time. It Is A Good Thing For Christians To Have Plenty Of Oil.

I Now Opened My Bible, And Began To Study, And Faith Has Been Growing Ever Since.
