The vigor of our spiritual life will be in exact proportion to the place held by the Bible in our life and thoughts.

Now what is food for the inner man? Not prayer, but the Word of God; and here again, not the simple reading of the Word of God, so that it only passes through our minds, just as water passes through a pipe, but considering what we read, pondering it over and applying it to our hearts.

God is the author of the Bible, and only the truth it contains will lead people to true happiness.

Laying up treasures in heaven will draw the heart heavenward.

The vigor of our spiritual life will be in exact proportion to the place held by the Bible in our life and thoughts.

There were few people, perhaps, more passionately fond of travelling, and seeing fresh places, and new scenes, than myself; but now, since, by the grace of God, I have seen beauty in the Lord Jesus, I have lost my taste for these things.

I believe God has heard my prayers. He will make it manifest in His own good time that He has heard me. I have recorded my petitions that when God has answered them, His name will be glorified.
