A noble heart is a thankful heart that loves to acknowledge whenever it has received any mercy.
Jeremiah BurroughsWhen you sailors see the haven before you, though you were mightily troubled before you could see any land, yet when you come near the shore and can see a certain land-mark, that contents you greatly. A godly man, in the midst of the waves and storms that he meets with, can see the glory of heaven before him and so contents himself. One drop of the sweetness of heaven is enough to take away all the sourness and bitterness of all the afflictions in the world.
Jeremiah BurroughsTo be well skilled in the mystery of Christian contentment is the duty, glory and excellence of a Christian.
