Jesus wept, but He never complained.

Prayer pulls the rope below and the great bell rings above in the ears of God. Some scarcely stir the bell, for they pray so languidly. Others give but an occasional pluck at the rope. But he who wins with heaven is the man who grasps the rope boldly and pulls continuously, with all his might.

That which,like a sea, threatens to drown you- shall be a highway for your escape

It is folly to think the Lord provides grace for every trouble but the one you are in today.

Faith is the silver thread upon which the pearls of the graces are to be hung. Break that, and you have broken the string - the pearls lie scattered on the ground.

If God be near a church, it must pray. And if he be not there, one of the first tokens of his absence will be a slothfulness in prayer.

The more of heaven there is in our lives, the less of earth we shall covet.
