I am afraid that all the grace that I have got of my comfortable and easy times and happy hours, might almost lie on a penny. But the good that I have received from my sorrows, and pains, and griefs, is altogether incalculable … Affliction is the best bit of furniture in my house. It is the best book in a minister’s library.

Thankfulness makes much of little.

The gospel is a gospel of giving and forgiving.

Grace is the mother and nurse of holiness, and not the apologist of sin.

When we preach Christ crucified, we have no reason to stammer, or stutter, or hesitate, or apologize; there is nothing in the gospel of which we have any cause to be ashamed.

There are no crown-wearers in heaven who were not cross-bearers here below.
