Faith does not question that God will provide, though it sees not which way provisions should come in. (‘Fides famem non formidat’) Faith does not fear famine.

A candle that won’t shine in one room is very unlikely to shine in another. If you do not shine at home, if your father and mother, your sister and brother, if the very cat and dog in the house are not the better and happier for your being a Christian, it is a question whether you really are one.

No man is greater than his prayer life. The pastor who is not praying is playing; the people who are not praying are straying. We have many organizers, but few agonizers; many players and payers, few pray-ers; many singers, few clingers; lots of pastors, few wrestlers; many fears, few tears; much fashion, little passion;
many interferers, few intercessors; many writers, but few fighters. Failing here, we fail everywhere.

Prayer must carry on our work as much as preaching; he preacheth not heartily to his people that will not pray for them.
