Personal Purity

The earnest and repeated prayers of any Christian young man or young woman for a pure heart and for strength to withstand temptations will never remain unanswered by our God, who has promised never to permit us to be confronted with temptations which we cannot withstand.

“Remember Now Thy Creator In The Days Of Thy Youth.”

The Savior gave us the divine assurance that even though the Christian's life is from cross to crown, it is still the easiest and happiest life for those who recognize the wisdom of putting first things first, and the folly of spurning the repeated mercies of divine and overflowing compassion.

“There are thousands of them in America.” my neighbor said. “Wonderful motion picture I call it.”

The Greatness of Being Small

Let us be happy to be considered small and insignificant in this world of distorted values, if only we shall be great and mighty in His sight in whose service we live, in whose Name we die, and in whose Kingdom we shall live eternally, in divine majesty, heavenly honor and never-ending glory.

True Riches

If I have but Jesus, only Jesus—nothing else in all the world beside, still I do possess all things in Jesus, all my needs and more He will provide.
