A state of mind that sees God in everything is evidence of growth in grace and a thankful heart.
Unless the will is free, man has no freedom; and if he has no freedom he is not a moral agent, that is, he is incapable of moral action and also of moral character.
Unless I had the spirit of prayer, I could do nothing.
There can be no revival when Mr. Amen and Mr. Wet-Eyes are not found in the audience.
A revival is nothing else than a new beginning of obedience to God.
