It is to the dead that the life comes; it is to the unloveable that the love comes; it is to the lost that the salvation comes.
Horatius BonarBe much alone with God, and take time to get thoroughly acquainted. Converse over everything with Him. Unburden yourself wholly -every thought, feeling, wish, plan, doubt- to Him...He wants not merely to be on good terms with you, but to be intimate.
Horatius BonarI looked for the church and I found it in the world; I looked for the world and I found it in the church.
Horatius BonarLife is a journey, not a home; a road, not a city of habitation; and the enjoyments and blessings we have are but little inns on the roadside of life, where we may be refreshed for a moment, that we may with new strength press on to the end - to the rest that remaineth for the people of God.
