Man cannot measure the bounds nor fathom the depths of divine forgiveness.

No pang that is suffered by man or woman upon the earth will be without its compensating effect . . . if it be met with patience.

Mere pleasure is at best but fleeting; happiness is abiding, for in the recollection thereof is renewed.

Our Lord's descent from the holy heights of the Mount of Transfiguration was more than a physical return from greater to lesser altitudes; it was a passing from sunshine into shadow, from the effulgent glory of heaven to the mists of worldly passions and human unbelief; it was the beginning of His rapid descent into the valley of humiliation.

No opinion that cannot stand discussion or criticism is worth holding.

We hear much nowadays as to the speculative ideas of men concerning the condition beyond the grave; but the admission that there is an individual existence beyond the grave, is a declaration that there must have been an individual, intelligent creation before we came here in the flesh. Life beyond the grave postulates a pre-existent state.

The Lord's hand in in our lives; if we will but feel for it, in the darkness, we can grasp it and be lifted thereby.
