| Dear Princess, Number 11 (Fall 1999) | Timeless Truths Publications, 1999 | Obedience | |
We also each have the town in front of us that God calls us to walk in. What is the town? It is God's way. It seems dark, uncertain, not promising a light, easy life. It calls us to give up our choice things—the things, people, places that are most dear to our hearts. | ||

| Five Reasons Why I Do Not Seek the Gift of Tongues | Elmer E. Shelhamer | Warning | |
We do not for one moment deny that there is a gift of tongues.... I would not dare do as many brethren, who denounce the entire Tongues movement as of the devil. I have found some of these people nearer heaven than some who oppose them. | ||

| How I Learned to Pray for the Lost | Anonymous/Unknown, 2011 | Prayer | |

| Subdued | George D. Watson, 1924 | Humility | |

| Foundation Truth, Number 24 (Spring 2010) | Timeless Truths Publications, 2010 | Light | |
We must know the greater power of God.... We cannot know this power if we are not willing to call good, good and evil, evil. If we will not agree with God's thinking about things, we will simply have a man-made religion. | ||

| The Extraordinarily Appropriate Gift | Mark P. Spinks, 2002 | Jesus/Savior | |
We needed someone like this—oh, how we needed and do need Him! He has exactly what we need. He is not too high and beyond our reach, and He is not too low. We needed someone holy who could make us holy and keep us holy. | ||

| The Key to Peace | A. Marie Miles, 1978 | Bible/Word | |
We need to search the Scriptures to find out how to live pleasing to the Lord in this world. We can't do this within ourselves. God had a plan for us by sending Jesus Christ to die on the cross for our salvation, so through Christ we can live right. | ||

"What are you going to cut?" Mikal wanted to know. "A new home for our little trees," said Uncle Gene. "You see, grafting is like adoption. These little sticks are like children that are going to be adopted. We are going to choose a good home for them on this tree...." | ||

| Sorry I Got Caught | Mark P. Spinks, 2010 | Repentance | |
"What do you have, Mark?... Did you get that in that store?" "No." I was concentrating fiercely on outwitting my watchful, determined Mom—too focused to realize that I was now not only a thief, but a liar, too. | ||

| Yield Not to Discouragement | Fred Pruitt | Encouragement | |
When you yield to discouragement, by that act you are saying that you do not believe God's Word, and you have listened to Satan's lying vanities and put yourself out of the reach of God's mercy until you confess and repent from the heart. | ||

| Foundation Truth, Number 14 (Summer 2006) | Timeless Truths Publications, 2006 | Holy Spirit | |
