"Some people think God does not like to be troubled with our
constant coming and asking. The way to trouble God is not to
come at all." - D. L. Moody
"The Christian on his knees sees more than the philosopher on
tiptoe." - D. L. Moody
"There is nothing that makes us love a man so much as praying
for him." - William Law
"Compassion costs. It is easy enough to argue, criticize and
condemn, but redemption is costly, and comfort draws from the
deep. Brains can argue, but It takes heart to comfort."
-Samuel Chadwick
"How careful we should be lest we misrepresent a real work of
grace because of some things which occasionally may accompany
it! When Whitefield was once preaching in Boston, the place was
so packed that the gallery was thought to be giving way, and there
was a panic in which several persons were trampled to death. But
it would be unfair and unreasonable to blame the revival for this...
We do not despise the great river because of the sticks and
straws that may occasionally float on its surface."
- William Alexander McKay (1890)
"In every revival there is a reemphasis of the Church's missionary
character. Men return to Calvary, and the world is seen afresh
through the eyes of Christ. The infinite compassion of Christ fills
the heart, and the passion evoked by Calvary demands the whole
wide world as the fruit of His sacrifice." - John Shearer
