from The Christian’s Secret of a Happy Life
This frail but tenacious woman leaned wholeheartedly upon the Spirit and strength of God to do what could never be done in human strength.
– said of Catherine Booth –
The fear of God is a Christian’s safety. He is invulnerable; nothing can hurt him. Plunder him of his money, he carries a treasure about him of which he cannot be robbed (Isa. 33:6). Cast him into prison his conscience is free; kill his body, it shall rise again. He who has on this breastplate of God’s fear may be shot at, but can never be shot through.
– Thomas Watson –
from The Great Gain of Godliness, 1682

– Andrew Murray –
Just as water ever seeks and fills the lowest place, so the moment God finds you abased and empty, His glory and power flow in.
– Andrew Murray –
What we need is not more learning, not more eloquence, not more persuasion, not more organization, but more power from the Holy Spirit.
