When I was young, I was sure of many things; now there are only two things of which I am sure: one is, that I am a miserable sinner; and the other, that Christ is an all-sufficient Saviour. He is well-taught who learns these two lessons.

We can easily manage if we will only take, each day, the burden appointed to it. But the load will be too heavy for us if we carry yesterday's burden over again today, and then add the burden of the morrow before we are required to bear it.

We serve a gracious Master who knows how to overrule even our mistakes to his glory and our own advantage.

The best advice I can give you: Look unto Jesus, beholding his beauty in the written word.

How many times has He delivered me! Yet, alas! How distrustful and ungrateful is my heart even until the present!

If our zeal is embittered by expressions of anger, invective, or scorn—we may think we are doing service of the cause of truth, when in reality we shall only bring it into discredit!

My grand point in preaching is to break the hard heart, and to heal the broken one.
