My desire is to live more to God to-day than yesterday, and to be more holy this hour than the last.

My soul is more at rest from the tempter when I am busily employed.

O what pride, conforming to the world and following its fashions! Warn them, warn them for me, while you have strength and time and be faithful to your duty.

Whither am I going? To the New World. What to do? To gain honor? No, if I know my own heart. To get money? No: I am going to live to God, and to bring others so to do.

God is gracious beyond the power of language to describe.

My desire is to live more to God to-day than yesterday, and to be more holy this hour than the last.

Preach as if you had seen heaven and its celestial inhabitants, and had hovered over the bottomless pit, and beheld the tortures, and heard the groans of the damned.
