He who finds not opposition from sin, and who sets not himself in every particular to its mortification, is at peace with it, not dying to it.

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.

It is often those who are despised and trampled on that bear up the weight of a whole nation.
