The Ideal Life Is In Our Blood

Nothing Lies Beyond The Reach Of Prayer Except That Which Lies Outside The Will Of God.

You May Look Through The Streets Of Heaven, Asking Each How They Came To B There, And You Will Look In Vain Everywhere For A Person Who Is Morally And Spiritually Strong, Whose Strength Did Not Come To Him In Struggle. There Is No Exception Anywhere. Every True Strength Is Gained In Struggle.

The Essence Of That By Which Jesus Overcame The World Was Not Suffering, But Obedience. Yes, Men May Puzzle Themselves And Their Hearers Over The Question Where The Power Of The Life Of Jesus And The Death Of Jesus Lay; But The Soul Of The Christian Always Knows That It Lay In The Obedience Of Christ. He Was Determined At Every Sacrifice To Do His Father's Will. Let Us Remember That; And The Power Of Christ's Sacrifice May Enter Into Us, And Some Little Share Of The Redemption Of The World May Come Through Us, As The Great Work Came Through Him.

I Would Know Any Man As A Christian, Would Rejoice To Know Any Man As A Christian, Whom Jesus Would Recognize As A Christian; And Jesus Christ, I Am Sure, In These Old Days Recognized His Followers Even If They Came After Him With The Blindest Sight, With The Most Imperfect Recognition And Acknowledgment Of What He Was And Of What He Could Do.

A Prayer In Its Simplest Definition Is Merely A Wish Turned Godward.
