Christ does not choose you because you are good, but to make you good.
It is a destructive addition to add anything to Christ
Possibilitas tua mensura tua'(What is possible to you is what you will be measured by).
The whole life of a Christian should be nothing but praises and thanks to God; we should neither eat nor sleep, but eat to God and sleep to God and work to God and talk to God, do all to His glory and praise.
Sin is not so sweet in the committing as it is heavy and bitter in the reckoning.
God's children improve all advantages to advance their grand end; they labour to grow better by blessings and crosses, and to make sanctified use of all things.
