Our heavenly Father never takes anything from his children unless he means to give them something better.

The word of God is our only standard, and the Holy Spirit our only teacher.

In order to enjoy the Word, we ought to continue to read it, and the way to obtain a spirit of prayer, is, to continue praying; for the less we read the Word of God, the less we desire to read it, and the less we pray, the less we desire to pray.

The greater the trial, the sweeter the victory.

Through faith in the Lord Jesus alone can we obtain forgiveness of our sins, and be at peace with God; but, believing in Jesus, we become, through this very faith, the children of God; have God as our Father, and may come to Him for all the temporal and spiritual blessings which we need.

A servant of God has but one Master. It ill becomes the servant to seek to be rich, and great, and honored in that world where his Lord was poor, and mean, and despised.

When the day of recompense comes, our only regret will be that we have done so little for Him, not that we have done too much.
