If your faith does not make you pray, have nothing to do with it; get rid of it, and God help thee to begin again.

A little thorn may cause much suffering. A little cloud may hide the sun. Little foxes spoil the vines; and little sins do mischief to the tender heart. These little sins burrow in the soul, and make it so full of that which is hateful to Christ, that he will hold no comfortable fellowship and communion with us. A great sin cannot destroy a Christian, but a little sin can make him miserable.

Humility is the proper estimate of oneself.

An ounce of heart knowledge is worth a ton of head learning.
