In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing; but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.
Charles SpurgeonOf all the things in the world that can set the heart burning, there is nothing like the presence of Jesus!
Charles SpurgeonThe greatest works are done by the ones. The hundreds do not often do much-the companies never; it is the units-the single individuals, that are the power and the might. Individual effort is, after all, the grand thing.
Charles SpurgeonThe motive is this, 'Oh! that God could be glorified, that Jesus might see the reward of his sufferings! Oh! that sinners might be saved, so that God might have new tongues to praise him, new hearts to love him! Oh! that sin were put an end to, that the holiness, righteousness, mercy, and power of God might be magnifi ed!' This is the way to pray; when thy prayers seek God's glory, it is God's glory to answer thy prayers.
Charles Spurgeon
