Sufficient for the day is all that we can enjoy. We cannot eat or drink or wear more than the day's supply of food and raiment; the surplus gives us the care of storing it, and the anxiety of watching against a thief. One staff aids a traveller, but a bundle of staves is a heavy burden. Enough is not only as good as a feast, but is all that the greatest glutton can truly enjoy. This is all that we should expect; a craving for more than this is ungrateful. When our Father does not give us more, we should be content with his daily allowance.

The goal of prayer is the ear of God.

Beloved, can you feel assured that He carried your sin?

It is only serving God that is doing immortal work; it is only living for Christ that is living at all.

The greatest, strongest, mightiest plea for the church of God in the world is the existence of the Spirit of God in its midst, and the works of the Spirit of God are the true evidences of Christianity. They say miracles are withdrawn, but the Holy Spirit is the standing miracle of the church of God to-day.

The practical effect of Christianity is happiness, therefore let it be spread abroad everywhere!

Defend the Bible? I'd sooner defend a lion. You don't defend the Bible; you open its cage and let it roar.
