To sneer at religion is to make it tha,
much harder for somebody to be good.
Whoever knows that God loves him
knows that He loves the whole world.
The man who knows himself well
will know a good deal about other men.
1t takes higher degree Of courage to
be laughed at than 1t does to be shot at.
A jury of ravens would not be long
In deciding that a linnet could not sing.
When self-righteousness gets up in
the night to pray nobody else can sleep.
1t takes backbone to take any kind Of
a stand that will leave q man standing
alone.
Those who hunger for the bread Of
life can never find it in the corn of
Egypt.
No man should try to speak for God,
except the MAN to whom God has
spoken.
The devil has the advantage of the
boy whose father Is moderate
drinker.
How much it would shorten our
prayers, il we would first do what God
requires.
Complete trust in God is the only
thing that will insure complete spiritu-
al health.
Religion is in a bad way, where no
body is being prosecuted for righteous
ness sake.
The degree of every mans manhood
is determined by how much he says no
to himself.
The man who does not rest in the
Lord when things go wrong makes 9th
ers very tired.
