“When we complain, we are saying that God doesn’t know what He is doing, that He is not in control. But when we sing praises to the Lord, we acknowledge that He is King over all the earth.” (Page 125)
“Meditation is to the soul what digestion is to the body. It means assimilating the Word of God.” (Page 9)
“When it seems as if God is far away, remind yourself that He is near. Nearness is not a matter of geography. God is everywhere. Nearness is likeness. The more we become like the Lord, the nearer He is to us.” (Page 29)
“When we are persecuted or experiencing problems, the first thing we should do is examine our own hearts—not examine the enemy or even examine God by saying, ‘God, why did You allow such a thing to happen?’” (Page 21)
“Finally, God perfects that which concerns us when we glorify Him” (Page 347)
