From every pulpit in the land it needs to be thundered forth that God still lives, that God still observes, ... still reigns. Faith is now in the crucible, it is being tested by fire, and there is no fixed... resting place for the heart and mind but in the Throne of God. What is needed now, as never before, is a full, positive, constructive setting forth of the Godhood of God.

God has often given His people favor in the sight of heathen masters (as Joseph and Daniel), and has magnified the sufficiency of His grace by preserving their souls in the midst of the most unpromising environments. His saints are found in very unlikely places.

Chastisement is designed for our good, to promote our highest interests. Look beyond the rod to the All-wise hand that wields it!

We must not forget that the issues of Eternity are settled in Time.

Almost all doctrinal error is really truth perverted. Truth wrongly divided. Truth disproportionately held and taught.

Contentment... is the soul's enjoyment of that peace that passes all understanding.

Taking up my cross means a life voluntarily surrendered to God.
