The best we can say to God in prayer, is what He has said to us.

It is better to get wisdom than gold. Gold is another's, wisdom is our own; gold is for the body and time, wisdom for the soul and eternity.

Whatever we have of this world in our hands, our care must be to keep it out of our hearts, lest it come between us and Christ.

Brotherly love is still the distinguishing badge of every true Christian.

Though we may now think some sins light and little, if the Lord awaken the conscience, we shall feel even the smallest sin heavy upon our souls.

None can know their election but by their conformity to the image of Christ; for all that are chosen are chosen to sanctification.

For love is of God. He is the fountain, author, parent, and commander of love; it is the sum of his law and gospel.
