In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing; but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.

A man is not saved against his will, but he is made willing by the operation of the Holy Ghost. A mighty grace which he does not wish to resist enters into the man, disarms him, makes a new creature of him, and he is saved.

Never be afraid of your Bibles.

The truest lengthening of life is to live while we live, wasting no time but using every hour for the highest ends. So be it this day.

True prayer is measured by weight, not by length

When we bless God for mercies, we usually prolong them. When we bless God for miseries, we usually end them. Praise is the honey of life which a devout heart extracts from every bloom of providence and grace.

I would not choose to go where I would be afraid to die, nor could I bear to live without a good hope for hereafter.
