He who prays as he ought will endeavour to live as he prays.

Obedience
November 17, 2012
In God’s kingdom, recognition and honor are not sought for and strived after, but given by God alone. And they come not to those who have exalted themselves, but only to those who have taken the lowest place, just as He did…He does not call us to be noticed and applauded by the world. He calls us to decrease, more and more, that He might increase within us.

We must never allow the majority to overrule the clear teaching of the Word of God.

The Cross in actual history is the point where the real Presence of God enters human history; and the point where the real Presence of God enters human life is the moment of absolute surrender, not of religious sentiment. The first step to sacramental discipleship is the crowning of Jesus as Lord.

I’m not busy. I have all the time I need to accomplish the things the Lord wants me to do today.

As long as we leave sin unconfessed, we are actually saying that we don’t believe the Lord is going to come now.

We are more concerned about looking stupid (a fear of people) than we are about acting sinfully (fear of the Lord).

We have missed the whole office and virtue of praying if it does not rectify our conduct. The very nature of things is that we must either quit praying or quit bad conduct. Cold, dead praying may exist with bad conduct, but cold, dead praying is no praying in God’s eyes. Our praying advances in power as it rectifies our lives. A life growing in its purity and devotion will be a more prayerful life.
