Providence is wonderfully intricate. Ah! You want always to see through Providence, do you not? You never will, I assure you. You have not eyes good enough. You want to see what good that affliction was to you; you must believe it. You want to see how it can bring good to the soul; you may be enabled in a little time; but you cannot see it now; you must believe it. Honor God by trusting Him.
Charles SpurgeonFaith goes up the stairs that love has built and looks out the windows which hope has opened.
Charles SpurgeonYou will always know whether you are delivered from the guilt of sin by answering this question: Am I delivered from the love of sin?
Charles SpurgeonWhen we believe that we ought to be satisfied, rather than God glorified, we set God below ourselves, imagine that He should submit His own honor to our advantage; we make ourselves more glorious than God, as though we were not made for Him, but He made for us; this is to have a very low esteem of the majesty of God.
Charles SpurgeonThe Gospel is like a caged lion. It does not need to be defended, it just needs to be let out of its cage.
