Robert E. Murray quotes:

Affliction brings out graces that cannot be seen in a time of health. It is the treading of the grapes that brings out the sweet juices of the vine; so it is affliction that draws forth submission, weanedness from the world, and complete rest in God. Use afflictions while you have them.

The leader's role is to make sure that strategy is kept super simple.

Unfathomable oceans of grace are in Christ for you. Dive and dive again, you will never come to the bottom of these depths.

I ordered a soda - caffeine-free, low sodium, no artificial flavors. They brought me a glass of water.

Do everything in earnest--if it is worth doing, then do it with all your might. Above all, keep much in the presence of God. Never see the face of man till you have seen his face who is our Life, our All.

I earnestly long for more grace and personal holiness, and more usefulness.

Learn much of the Lord Jesus. For every look at yourself, take ten looks at Christ. He is altogether lovely.

Never see the face of man till you have seen his face who is our life, our all.

The problem now is (that) the foods of poor quality are the ones coming in from home from teachers and staff, used for birthday parties and for things like booster sales.

A glance at Christ will save, but it is the gazing at Christ that sanctifies.

Do not doubt the holy love of Jesus to your soul when he is laying a heavy hand upon you.

If nothing else will do to sever me from my sins, Lord, send me such sore and trying calamities as shall awake me from earthly slumbers. It must always be best to be alive to Thee, whatever be the quickening instrument.

If the veil of the world's machinery were lifted off, how much we would find is done in answer to the prayers of God's children.

Life itself is vanishing fast. Make haste for eternity.

No amount of activity in the King's service will make up for neglect of the King Himself.

No one ever came to Christ because they knew themselves to be of the elect. It is quite true that God has of his mere good pleasure elected some to everlasting life, but they never knew it until they came to Christ. Christ nowhere invites the elect to come to Him. The question for you is not, Am I one of the elect? But, Am I one of the human race?

The loving and much loved wife is satisfied with the love of her husband; his smile is her joy, she cares little for any other. So, if you have come to Christ, thy Maker is thine husband - His free love to you is all you need, and all you can care for - there is no cloud between you and God - there is no veil between you and the Father; you have access to Him who is the fountain of happiness - what have you to do any more with idols? Oh! If your heart swims in the rays of God's love, like a little mote swimming in the sunbeam, you will have no room in your heart for idols.

We do not know the value of Christ, if we will not cleave to Him unto death!

When God gives a promise, He always tries our faith. Just as the roots of trees take firmer hold when they are contending with the wind, so faith takes a firmer hold when it struggles with adverse appearances.
