My dear friend, venture to take the wind on your face for Christ.

Verily, we know not what an evil it is to indulge ourselves, and to make an idol of our will.

In our fluctuations of feelings, it is well to remember that Jesus admits no change in His affections; your heart is not the compass Jesus saileth by.

Many are friends to the success of reformation, not to reformation.

There is no sweeter fellowship with Christ than to bring our wounds and our sores to him.

I have been benefited by praying for others; for by making an errand to God for them I have gotten something for myself.

There is as much in our Lord's pantry as will satisfy all his children and as much wine in his cellar as will quench all their thirst. Hunger on, for there is meat in hungering for Christ; go never from him, but seek him who is yet pleased with the importunity of hungry souls until he fills you; if he delays, yet do not go away, even if you faint at his feet.
