“Purity does not mean crushing the instincts but having the instincts as servants and not the master of the spirit.”
― Eric Liddell, Disciplines of Christian Life

“You will know as much of God, and only as much of God, as you are willing to put into practice.”
― Eric Liddell, Disciplines of Christian Life

“For those who feel their lives are a grave disappointment to God, it requires enormous trust and reckless, raging confidence to accept that the love of Jesus Christ knows no shadow of alteration or change. When Jesus said, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy burdened," He assumed we would grow weary, discouraged, and disheartened along the way. These words are a touching testimony to the genuine humanness of Jesus. He had no romantic notion of the cost of discipleship. He knew that following Him was as unsentimental as duty, as demanding as love.”
― Brennan Manning, The Ragamuffin Gospel

“Nothing teaches us about the preciousness of the Creator as much as when we learn the emptiness of everything else.”
― Charles Spurgeon, Morning and Evening, Based on the English Standard Version
