The stool of repentance and the foot of the cross are the favorite positions of instructed Christians.

A sense of our own folly is a great step towards being wise, when it leads us to rely on the wisdom of the Lord.

A prayer less soul is a Christ less soul.

When we ask of the Lord coolly, and not fervently, we do as it were, stop His hand, and restrain Him from giving us the very blessing we "pretend" that we are seeking.

Free grace can go into the gutter, and bring up a jewel!

It is a very solemn delusion when ministers think they are prospering, and yet do not hear of conversions.

It is all ablaze with grateful adoration.
