Beware that you are not swallowed up in books! An ounce of love is worth a pound of knowledge.

Was there anything Jesus wanted from this earth besides you and me? … NOTHING.
– Zac Poonen –
A man cannot seek both Heaven and earth at the same time. He cannot love both Christ and the world. He who is all on fire for the world — will be all ice for Heaven! Take heed of engaging your affections too far in these earthly things. Use the world as your servant — but do not follow it as your master.
– Thomas Watson –
I care not where I go, or how I live, or what I endure so that I may save souls. When I sleep I dream of them; when I awake they are first in my thoughts. No amount of scholastic attainment, of able and profound exposition, of brilliant and stirring eloquence can atone for the absence of a deep impassioned sympathetic love for human souls.
– David Brainerd –
Beware that you are not swallowed up in books! An ounce of love is worth a pound of knowledge.

Having made Jesus your all, you shall find all in Jesus.
– Charles Spurgeon –
Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading.
– Oswald Chambers –
All of my need He freely supplieth,
Day after day His goodness I prove;
Mercies unfailing, new every morning,
Tell me of God’s unchanging love.
– Thomas Chisholm –
from the hymn He Supplieth All of My Need
Perfect love of God with our heart, soul, mind, and strength will not happen until we are no longer compelled to think about ourselves.
– Bernard of Clairvaux –
from On the Love of God
