It is Christ's manner to trouble our souls first, and then to come with healing in his wings.

Christ does not choose you because you are good, but to make you good.

The wronged side is always the safest.

God will have the body partake with the soul-as in matters of grief, so in matters of joy; the lanthorn shines in the light of the candle within.

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

Possibilitas tua mensura tua'(What is possible to you is what you will be measured by).

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.
