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

I have learned to kiss the waves that throw me up against the Rock of Ages.

As sure as God puts His children in the furnace of affliction, He will be with them in it.

After faith comes repentance, or, rather, repentance is faith's twin brother and is born at the same time.

Praise is the beauty of a Christian. What wings are to a bird, what fruit is to the tree, what the rose is to the thorn, that is praise to a child of God.

I will say broadly that I have more confidence in the spiritual life of the children that I have received into this church than I have in the, spiritual condition of the adults thus received. I will even go further than that, and say that I have usually found a clearer knowledge of the gospel and a warmer love of Christ in the child-converts than in the man-converts. I will even astonish you still more by saying that I have sometimes met with a deeper spiritual experience in children of ten and twelve than I have in certain persons of fifty and sixty.
