Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. Proverbs 4:7

True education does not ignore the value of scientific knowledge or literary acquirements; but above information it values power; above power, goodness; above intellectual acquirements, character.

The world does not so much need men of great intellect as of noble character. It needs men in whom ability is controlled by steadfast principle....

Character-building is the most important work ever entrusted to human beings; and never before was its diligent study so important as now.

Never was any previous generation called to meet issues so momentous; never before were young men and young women confronted by perils so great as confront them today.

Students, make your school life as perfect as possible. You will pass over the way but once, and precious are the opportunities granted you.

You are not only to learn but to practise the lessons of Christ. While obtaining your education, you have the opportunity to tell of the wonderful truths of God’s Word. Improve every such opportunity. God will bless every minute spent in this way.

Maintain your simplicity and your love for souls, and the Lord will lead you in safe paths.

The rich experience you gain will be of more value to you than gold or silver or precious stones.

You know not to what position you may be called in the future. God may use you as He used Daniel, to take the knowledge of the truth to the mighty of the earth.

It rests with you to say whether you will have skill and knowledge to do this work.

God can give you skill in all your learning.

"Deceitful Heart"

The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it? Jeremiah 17:9 Counterfeit holiness, spurious sanctification, is still doing its work of deception. Under various forms it exhibits the same spirit as in the days of Luther, diverting minds from the Scriptures, and leading men to follow their own feelings and impressions rather than to yield obedience to the law of God. This is one of Satan’s most successful devices to cast reproach upon purity and truth. He who beholds Christ in His self-denial, His lowliness of heart, will be constrained to say, as did Daniel, when he beheld One like the sons of men, “My comeliness was turned in me into corruption.” The independence and self-supremacy in which we glory, are seen in their true vileness, as tokens of servitude to Satan.  Human nature is ever struggling for expression, ready for contest; but he who learns of Christ is emptied of self, of pride, of love of supremacy, and there is silence in the soul.

O man of God, flee these things

Clipart by wwwdotclkerdotcom But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness. 1 Timothy 6:11. Our time here is short. We can pass through this world but once; as we pass along, let us make the most of life. The work to which we are called does not require wealth or social position or great ability. It requires a kindly, self-sacrificing spirit and a steadfast purpose. A lamp, however small, if kept steadily burning, may be the means of lighting many other lamps. Our sphere of influence may seem narrow, our ability small, our opportunities few, our acquirements limited; yet wonderful possibilities are ours through a faithful use of the opportunities of our own homes. If we will open our hearts and homes to the divine principles of life, we shall become channels for currents of life-giving power. From our homes will flow streams of healing, bringing life, and beauty, and fruitfulness where now are barrenness and de...
