No verse of Scripture yields its meaning to lazy people.

How blessed to know that when the world hates us, God loves us!

Contentment, then, is the product of a heart resting in God. It is the soul’s enjoyment of that peace that passes all understanding. It is the outcome of my will being brought into subjection to the Divine will. It is the blessed assurance that God does all things well, and is, even now, making all things work together for my ultimate good.

An ineffably holy God, who has the utmost abhorrence of sin, was never invented by any of Adam's descendents.

Prayer is the way and means God has appointed for the communication of the blessings of His goodness to His people.

Prayer is not intended to change God's purpose, nor is it to move Him to form fresh purposes. God has decreed that certain events shall come to pass through the means He has appointed for their accomplishment.

Prayer is not designed for the furnishing of God with the knowledge of what we need, but it is designed as a confession to him of our sense of need.
