Matthew

“As the sailor locates his position on the sea by "shooting" the sun, so we may get our moral bearings by looking at God.”
― A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

“These blessed poor are no longer slaves to the tyranny of things. They have broken the yoke of the oppressor; and this they have done not by fighting but by surrendering. Though free from all sense of possessing, they yet possess all things. "Theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
― A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God

“Complacency is a deadly foe of all spiritual growth. Acute desire must be present or there will be no manifestation of Christ to His people. He waits to be wanted. Too bad that with many of us He waits so long, so very long, in vain.”
― A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God: The Human Thirst for the Divine

“In this hour of all-but-universal darkness one cheering gleam appears: within the fold of conservative Christianity there are to be found increasing numbers of persons whose religious lives are marked by a growing hunger after God Himself. They are eager for spiritual realities and will not be put off with words, nor will they be content with correct "interpretations" of truth. They are athirst for God, and they will not be satisfied till they have drunk deep at the Fountain of Living Water.”
― A.W. Tozer, The Pursuit of God
