“If the entire world sought to make itself worthy of happiness rather than make itself happy, then the entire world would be happy.”

“The will of God is sweet tonight, altogether ‘good and acceptable and perfect.’ The considerate love of the Lord Jesus for us seems such a kind thing now. I know it has always been so, but somehow I didn’t see how wise it was when it didn’t seem kind… Remind me of this when I cannot regard His love as considerate some time.”

“God favors men and women who delight in being made worthy of happiness before the happiness itself.”
