The joy of the Lord will arm us against the assaults of our spiritual enemies, and, put our mouths out of taste for those pleasures with which the tempter baits his hooks.

Those that have so much power over others as to be able to oppress them have seldom so much over themselves as not to oppress.

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

The anger of a meek man is like fire struck out of steel, hard to be got out, and when it is, soon gone.

. . . when we cannot do the good we would, we must be ready to do the good we can.

Those that set God always before them and walk before him with all their hearts, shall find him as good as his word and better; he will both keep covenant with them and show mercy to them.
