Don't waste your sorrows

Only he who can say, 'The Lord is the strength of my life' can go on to say, 'Of whom shall I be afraid?'

Embrace in one act the two truths-thine own sin, and God's infinite mercy in Jesus Christ.

Death is but a passage. It is not a house, it is only a vestibule. The grave has a door on its inner side.

As the flowers follow the sun, and silently hold up their petals to be tinted and enlarged by its shining, so must we, if we would know the joy of God, hold our souls, wills, hearts, and minds, still before Him, whose voice commands, whose love warns, whose truth makes fair our whole being. God speaks for the most part in such silence only. If the soul be full of tumult and jangling voices, His voice is little likely to be heard.

Faith is the sight of the inward eye.

In making our decisions, we must use the brains that God has given us. But we must also use our hearts which He also gave us. A man who has not learned to say, No -who is not resolved that he will take God's way, in spite of every dog that can bay or bark at him, in spite of every silvery choice that woos him aside-will be a weak and a wretched man till he dies.
