May your character not be a writing upon the sand, but an inscription upon the rock!

Song of God and Son of Man, there He hangs, bearing pains unutterable, the just for the unjust, to bring us to God.

The Christian should take nothing short of Christ for his model.

It is blessed to eat into the very soul of the Bible until the very essence of the Bible flows from you.

Master those books you have. Read them thoroughly. Bathe in them until they saturate you. Read and reread them…digest them. Let them go into your very self. Peruse a good book several times and make notes and analyses of it. A student will find that his mental constitution is more affected by one book thoroughly mastered than by twenty books he has merely skimmed. Little learning and much pride comes from hasty reading. Some men are disabled from thinking by their putting meditation away for the sake of much reading. In reading let your motto be ‘much not many.

It is not faith in Christ that saves you (though faith is the instrument) - it is Christ's blood and merits.

Good thoughts are blessed guests, and should be heartily welcomed, well fed, and much sought after. Like rose leaves, they give out a sweet smell if laid up in the jar of memory.
