The temple in which the Lord Jesus delights most, is a broken and contrite heart, renewed by the Holy Spirit.

Happiness does not depend on outward circumstances, but on the state of the heart.

Look to the cross, think of the cross, meditate on the cross, and then go and set your affections on the world if you can.

What you think now about the cross of Christ, I cannot tell; but I can wish you nothing better than this - that you may be able to say with the apostle Paul, before you die or meet the Lord, 'God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ.'

Prayer is the mightiest weapon that God has placed in our hands.

Never does a person see any beauty in Christ as a Savior, until they discover that they are a lost and ruined sinner.

The brightest saint is the man who has the most heart-searching sense of his own sinfulness, and the liveliest sense of his own complete acceptance in Christ.
