Oh, come, Divine Physician, and bind up every broken bone. Come with Thy sacred nard which Thou hast compounded of Thine own heart’s blood, and lay it home to the wounded conscience and let it feel its power. Oh! Give peace to those whose conscience is like the troubled sea which cannot rest.

When Christians say God has been talking to them about something, it simply means they have a strong inner conviction or feeling that God has made His will known to them.

Medicine is the restoration of discordant elements; sickness is the discord of the elements infused into the living body.

It is better for you to be free of fear lying upon a pallet, than to have a golden couch and a rich table and be full of trouble.

That we must love one God only is a thing so evident that it does not require miracles to prove it.

I think that people want peace so much that one of these days government had better get out of their way and let them have it.

It’s true my father abused me and didn’t love and protect me the way he should have, and at times it seemed no one would ever help me and it would never end. But God always had a plan for my life, and He has redeemed me.

Faith: not wanting to know what is true.

To be an atheist requires an indefinitely greater measure of faith than to recieve all the great truths which atheism would deny.

Of all religions, the Christian should of course inspire the most tolerance, but until now Christians have been the most intolerant of all men.

Grief changes shape, but it never ends.

I used to say to my late wife, ‚I have great faith in the American people.‘

Wars have never hurt anybody except the people who die.

Prayer doesn’t just change things – it changes us. If we are diligent in seeking God, slowly and surely we become better people.

We must concentrate not merely on the negative expulsion of war but the postive affirmation of peace.

Fear clogs; faith liberates.

Sleeping is no mean art: for its sake one must stay awake all day.

It’s very important that we re-learn the art of resting and relaxing. Not only does it help prevent the onset of many illnesses that develop through chronic tension and worrying; it allows us to clear our minds, focus, and find creative solutions to problems.

God gives the nuts, but he does not crack them.

Duty cannot exist without faith.

Whether full-time missionaries or members, we should all be good examples of the believers in Jesus Christ.

I am still far from being what I want to be, but with God’s help I shall succeed.

The only answer to fear is faith in God, knowing He loves you unconditionally and individually.

We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other’s children.

Anyone who thinks must think of the next war as they would of suicide.

You might say, ‚Can’t we have a more human Christianity, without the cross, without Jesus, without stripping ourselves?‘ In this way we’d become pastry-shop Christians, like a pretty cake and nice sweet things. Pretty, but not true Christians.

And know that I am with you always; yes, to the end of time.

I purposely don’t talk about money, because people are already skeptical about TV preachers. But I do say that I want you to be blessed. To me, prosperity is having health, having great children, having peace, good relationships. It’s not about the money.

Man must cease attributing his problems to his environment, and learn again to exercise his will – his personal responsibility in the realm of faith and morals.

I tell people, and it’s the truth, I could sit in my garage for a week and it won’t make me a car. And you can sit in church till your bottom is flat and that won’t make you a servant of Christ.

Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.

I am a most noteworthy sinner, but I have cried out to the Lord for grace and mercy, and they have covered me completely. I have found the sweetest consolation since I made it my whole purpose to enjoy His marvellous Presence.

Grief is the price we pay for love.

If you’re not careful to think and speak words of faith, worry will creep in, and it will not only steal your peace and joy, it will steal your ‚today.‘ The present is the greatest gift God ever gives us. So hold on to the peace that’s yours in Christ. Don’t let it go.

I believe many people feel like God is mad at them.

I have always believed in God.

Non-violence requires a double faith, faith in God and also faith in man.

You hear a lot about God these days: God, the beneficent; God, the all-great; God, the Almighty; God, the most powerful; God, the giver of life; God, the creator of death. I mean, we’re hearing about God all the time, so we better learn how to deal with it. But if we know anything about God, God is arbitrary.

Those who today always look for disciplinarian solutions, those who long for an exaggerated doctrinal ‚security,‘ those who stubbornly try to recover a past that no longer exists – they have a static and inward-directed view of things. In this way, faith becomes an ideology among other ideologies.

I am rather inclined to silence.

We knew sports was important to us and our family, but there are priorities in life.Obviously, faith is foremost; how we did in school is important. If we didn’t handle that business then there were no privileges.

Nonviolence is the first article of my faith. It is also the last article of my creed.

I am at peace with God. My conflict is with Man.

I think it makes sense to believe in God, but exactly what decision in your life you make differently because of it, I don’t know.

I try to look on all the great things God’s done, and not focus on the negative. It’s a perspective.

Only God who made us can touch us and change us and save us from ourselves.

The Lord can give, and the Lord can take away. I might be herding sheep next year.

God wants to help us… He loves us… we are His children. But He will not force His help on us at any time. He sees us when we struggle and fight and complain our way through things. And I believe it breaks His heart, when all we have to do is ask Him for help.

My understanding of the Scriptures has been made simple by the person of Christ.

Whatever universe a professor believes in must at any rate be a universe that lends itself to lengthy discourse. A universe definable in two sentences is something for which the professorial intellect has no use. No faith in anything of that cheap kind!

Our prayers should be for blessings in general, for God knows best what is good for us.

Our faith is released as we say, pray and do the Word.

All of us are guinea pigs in the laboratory of God. Humanity is just a work in progress.
