Love should be the silver thread that runs through all your conduct. Kindness, gentleness, long suffering, forbearance, patience, sympathy, a willingness to enter into childish troubles, a readiness to take part in childish joys, - these are the cords by which a child may be led most easily, - these are the clues you must follow if you would find the way to his heart.
J. C. RyleA true Christian is one who has not only peace of conscience, but war within. He may be known by his warfare as well as by his peace.
J. C. RyleBetter to confess Christ 1000 times now and be despised by men, than be disowned by Christ before God on the day of Judgment.
J. C. RyleIf we would know whether our faith is genuine, we do well to ask ourselves how we are living.
J. C. RyleParents, do you wish to see your children happy? Take care, then, that you train them to obey when they are spoken to, -to do as they are bid.... Teach them to obey while young, or else they will be fretting against God all their lives long, and wear themselves out with the vain idea of being independent of His control.
