If you once love Him, you will study to please Him.

I make it a rule of Christian duty never to go to a place where there is not room for my Master as well as myself.

Although my memory's fading, I remember two things very clearly: I am a great sinner and Christ is a great Savior.

Our work is great; our time is short; the consequences of our labors are infinite.

By affliction prayer is quickened, for our prayers are very apt to grow languid and formal in a time of ease.

I look upon prayer-meetings as the most profitable exercises (excepting the public preaching) in which Christians can engage. They have a direct tendency to kill a worldly, trifling spirit, and to draw down a Divine blessing upon all our concerns, compose differences, and enkindle (at least maintain) the flames of Divine love amongst brethren.

Zeal is that pure and heavenly flame,The fire of love supplies ;While that which often bears the name,Is self in a disguise.True zeal is merciful and mild,Can pity and forbear ;The false is headstrong, fierce and wild,And breathes revenge and war.
