It is foolish to try to live on past experience. It is very dangerous, if not a fatal habit, to judge ourselves to be safe because of something that we felt or did twenty years ago.
Charles SpurgeonBeloved Friends, we may well continue to praise God, for our God continues to give us causes for praise!
Charles SpurgeonHold everything earthly with a loose hand, but grasp eternal things with a death-like grip
Charles SpurgeonSoar back through all your own experiences. Think of how the Lord has led you in the wilderness and has fed and clothed you every day. How God has borne with your ill manners, and put up with all your murmurings and all your longings after the 'sensual pleasures of Egypt!' Think of how the Lord's grace has been sufficient for you in all your troubles.
Charles Spurgeon
