Not to be daily mortifying sin, is to sin against the goodness, kindness, wisdom, grace, and love of God, who hath furnished us with a principle of doing it.

We are never nearer Christ than when we find ourselves lost in a holy amazement at His unspeakable love.

When the heart is once won to rest in God, to repose himself on him, he will assuredly satisfy it. He will never be as water that fails; nor hath he said at any time to the seed of Jacob, "Seek ye my face in vain." If Christ be chosen for the foundation of our supply, he will not fail us.

We cannot enjoy peace in this world unless we are ready to yield to the will of God in respect of death. Our times are in His hand, at His sovereign disposal. We must accept that as best.

Then are we servants of God, then are we the disciples of Christ, when we do what is commanded us and because it is commanded us.

He that stands still and suffers his enemies to double blows upon him without resistance, will undoubtedly be conquered in the issue.

Meditate on the Word in the Word.
