To be cast down is often the best thing that can happen to us.

Nothing is so sweet as to lie passive in God's hands, and know no will but His.

There is no repentance where a man can talk lightly of sin, much less where he can speak tenderly and lovingly of it.

Where persons love little, do little, and give little, we may shrewdly suspect that they have never had much affliction of heart for their sins and that they think they owe but very little to divine grace.

If I had never joined a church till I had found one that was perfect, I should never have joined one at all.

Jesus poured out his soul in life before he poured it out unto death

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