The throttle is in our own hands. Too many of us want to make a peace treaty with Christ, but will not make a total surrender to Christ. The Christian has every right to tell God he wants to be a saint, but the Christian has no right to tell God how to make him one. It is much easier to wear a cross than to bear a cross. Whom the Lord loveth, He corecteth.

Knowledge is not character, but character is developed from knowledge and obedience. Lord, let nothing live in me that should die and let nothing die in me that should live. The worst thing that God gives us is better than the best thing Satan offers. It then becomes a motivating force. Every mother is a career woman.
