It is atheism to pray and not wait on hope.

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

God can pick sense out of a confused prayer.

In the godly, holy truths are conveyed by way of a taste; gracious men have a spiritual palate as well as a spiritual eye. Grace alters the spiritual taste.

Times are bad, God is good.

The way to cover our sin is to uncover it by confession.

When a man is to travel into a far country...one staff in his hand may comfortably support him, but a bundle of staves would be troublesome. Thus a competency of these outward things may happily help us in the way to heaven, whereas abundance may be hurtful.
