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.

This is a life of faith, for God will try the truth of our faith, so that the world may see that God has such servants as will depend upon His bare word.

The life of a Christian is wondrously ruled in this world, by the consideration and meditation of the life of another world.

Whatsoever God takes away from His children, He either replaces it with a much greater favor or else gives strength to bear it.

If Christ has once possessed the affections, there is no dispossessing of him again. A fire in the heart overcomes all fires without.

No sin is so great but the satisfaction of Christ and His mercies are greater; it is beyond comparison. Fathers and mothers in tenderest affections are but beams and trains to lead us upwards to the infinite mercy of God in Christ.

A man knows no more in religion than he loves and embraceth with the affections of his soul.
