Denial: In this world it is not what we take up but what we give up that makes us rich.
God remembers what we forgot, and we remember, unfortunately, what God forgets.
You deny Christ when you fail to deny yourself.
It is far better to know our own weaknesses and failings than to point out those of others.
It is not by accident that the symbol of Christianity is the cross rather than a bed of ease.
Giving to God is not losing—it’s winning.
When we die with Christ on the cross, He comes to live in us by His Spirit.
It is better to suffer for the cause of Christ than for the cause of Christ to suffer.
A cross around the neck is no substitute for a cross on your back.
There are no short cuts to the heavenly kingdom. It is not the way across, but the way of the cross, that leads home.
It is when we forget ourselves that we do things that are remembered.
Self-denial is the finest lesson in the school of grace.
In going the second mile, we find no traffic jams.
We are ruined, not by what we really want, but by what we think we want.
Christ offers a crown only to those who take up His cross.
