To grieve over sin is one thing, to repent is another.

On earth we have nothing to do with success or with results, but only with being true to God, and for God; for it is sincerity, and not success, which is the sweet savor before God. The defeat of the true-hearted is victory.

Never does a man know the force that is in him till some mighty affliction or grief has humanized the soul.

Only so far as a man believes strongly, mightily, can he act cheerfully, or do anything that is worth doing.

Christ within us, the hope of glory.

To grieve over sin is one thing, to repent is another.

By experience; by a sense of human frailty; by a perception of "the soul of goodness in things evil;" by a cheerful trust in human nature; by a strong sense of God's love; by long and disciplined realization of the atoning love of Christ; only thus can we get a free, manly, large, princely spirit of forgiveness.
