We shall not grow weary of waiting upon God if we remember how long and how graciously He once waited for us.
Charles SpurgeonTime is short. Eternity is long. It is only reasonable that this short life be lived in the light of eternity.
Charles SpurgeonI saw a young sister, just before this service; and I said to her, "When did you find the Lord?" She replied, "It was when I was very ill." Yes, it is often so; God makes us ill in body that we may have time to think of Him, and turn to Him....What would become of some people if they were always in good health, or if they were always prospering? But tribulation is the black dog that goes after the stray sheep, and barks them back to the Good Shepherd. I thank God that there are such things as the visitations of correction and of holy discipline, to preserve our spirit, and bring us to Christ.
