    Elisabeth Elliot

    Elisabeth Elliot, Let Me Be a Woman

    Elisabeth Elliot
    “The way you keep your house, the way you organize your time, the care you take in your personal appearance, the things you spend your money on, all speak loudly about what you believe. The beauty of thy peace shines forth in an ordered life. A disordered life speaks loudly of disorder in the soul.”
    Elisabeth Elliot, Let Me Be a Woman

    Elisabeth Elliot
    “This love of which I speak is slow to lose patience - it looks for a way of being constructive.
    Love is not possessive.
    Love is not anxious to impress nor does it cherish inflated ideas of its own ideas.
    Love has good manners and does not pursue selfish advantage.
    Love is not touchy.
    Love does not keep account of evil or gloat over the wickedness of other people. On the contrary, it is glad with all good men when truth prevails.
    Love knows no limits to its endurance, no end to its trust, no fading of its hope; it can outlast anything. It is, in fact, the one thing that stands when all else has fallen.”
    Elisabeth Elliot, Let Me Be a Woman

    Joshua Harris
    “The world takes us to a silver screen on which flickering images of passion and romance play, and as we watch, the world says, “This is love.” God takes us to the foot of a tree on which a naked and bloodied man hangs and says, “This is love.”
    Joshua Harris, I Kissed Dating Goodbye

    Nancy Leigh DeMoss
    “I have learned that in every circumstance that comes my way, I can choose to respond in one of two ways: I can whine or I can worship! And I can't worship without giving thanks. It just isn't possible. When we choose the pathway of worship and giving thanks, especially in the midst of difficult circumstances, there is a fragrance, a radiance, that issues forth out of our lives to bless the Lord and others.”
    Nancy Leigh DeMoss, Choosing Gratitude: Your Journey to Joy

    Dietrich Bonhoeffer
    “God loves human beings. God loves the world. Not an ideal human, but human beings as they are; not an ideal world, but the real world. What we find repulsive in their opposition to God, what we shrink back from with pain and hostility, namely, real human beings, the real world, this is for God the ground of unfathomable love.”
    Dietrich Bonhoeffer, A Year with Dietrich Bonhoeffer

    Criss Jami
    “To be honest, one can only feel glad that so many modern iconoclasts consider Christianity to be full of exceptionally hypocritical, religious zealots - it's biblically accurate and a prophecy fulfilled. The old smoke screen is one of Satan's favorite tricks. He conceals the authentic. He has a persistent strategy of targeting those who remind him of Christianity because he fears those who remind him of Christ.”
    Criss Jami, Killosophy

    Charles Haddon Spurgeon
    “Newspapers are the Bibles of worldlings.
    How diligently they read them!
    Here they find their law and profits,
    their judges and chronicles,
    their epistles and revelations.”
    Charles Spurgeon

  • #23
    Charles Haddon Spurgeon
    “There are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting upon God, and gathering through meditation on His Word spiritual strength for labour in his service. We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. . . . Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God's Word. They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn, but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet, but they will not stoop to drink it. From such folly deliver us, O Lord. . . .”
    Charles Spurgeon

    “We must be ready to allow ourselves to be interrupted by God.”
    Dietrich Bonhoeffer

  • #27
    Dietrich Bonhoeffer
    “I discovered later, and I'm still discovering right up to this moment, that is it only by living completely in this world that one learns to have faith. By this-worldliness I mean living unreservedly in life's duties, problems, successes and failures. In so doing we throw ourselves completely into the arms of God, taking seriously, not our own sufferings, but those of God in the world. That, I think, is faith.”
    Dietrich Bonhoeffer

    “Self-respect is the root of discipline: The sense of dignity grows
    with the ability to say no to oneself.”
    Abraham Joshua Heschel
