In prosperity God is heard, and that is a blessing; but in adversity God is seen, and that is a greater blessing.
Charles SpurgeonNo matter how dear you are to God, if pride is harboured in your spirit, He will whip it out of you. They that go up in their own estimation must come down again by His discipline
Charles SpurgeonIt is a good rule never to look into the face of a man in the morning till you have looked into the face of God.
Charles Spurgeon
