  • The expression of Christian character is not good doing, but God-likeness. If the Spirit of God has transformed you within, you will exhibit Divine characteristics in your life, not good human characteristics . God's life in us expresses itself as God's life, not as human life trying to be godly.

    Oswald Chambers (2011). “My Utmost for His Highest Classic Edition”, p.538, Discovery House

  • Good habits are not made on birthdays, nor Christian character at the new year. The vision may dawn, the dream may waken, the heart may leap with a new inspiration on some mountain-top, but the test, the triumph, is at the foot of the mountain, on the level plain. The workshop of character is every-day life. The uneventful and commonplace hour is where the battle is won or lost.

    "Thoughts for Every-day Living from the Spoken and Written Words of Maltbie Davenport Babcock".
  • The true expression of Christian character is not in good-doing but in God-likeness.

    Oswald Chambers (2005). “My Utmost for His Highest”, Discovery House Pub

    Helen Keller (1957). “The Open Door”, Garden City, N.Y. : Doubleday
  • Prayer is self-discipline. The effort to realize the presence and power of God stretches the sinews of the soul and hardens its muscles. To pray is to grow in grace. To tarry in the presence of the King leads to new loyalty and devotion on the part of the faithful subjects. Christian character grows in the secret-place of prayer.

  • I used to think that God's gifts were on shelves one above the other and that the taller we grew in Christian character, the more easily we should reach them. I find now that God's gifts are on shelves one beneath the other and that is not a question of growing taller, but of stooping lower and that we have to go down, always down to get His best ones.

    Henry Ward Beecher, William Drysdale (1887). “Proverbs from Plymouth Pulpit”

  • Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.

    Helen Keller (1957). “The Open Door”, Garden City, N.Y. : Doubleday
  • The workshop of character is everyday life.

    Maltbie Davenport Babcock (1901). “Thoughts for Every-day Living from the Spoken and Written Words of Maltbie Davenport Babcock”
  • The essential difference between that knowledge which is, and that which is not conclusive evidence of Christian character, lies in this: the object of the one is the agreement of the several parts of a theological proposition; the object of the other is moral beauty, the intrinsic loveliness of God and Divine things. The sinner sees and hates; the saint sees and loves.

    Christian   Hate   Lying  
    Gardiner Spring (1819). “Essays on the distinguishing traits of Christian character”, p.25
  • So often we try to develop Christian character and conduct without taking the time to develop God-centered devotion. We try to please God without taking the time to walk with Him and develop a relationship with Him. This is impossible to do.

    Jerry Bridges (2016). “The Practice of Godliness”, p.12, NavPress
  • I think that my strong determination for justice comes from the very strong, dynamic personality of my father ... I have rarely ever met a person more fearless and courageous than my father ...

He is conscientious in all of his undertakings ... If I had a problem I could always call Daddy.
