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.

He who duly esteemeth Christ, is a noble bidder, and so a noble and liberal buyer.

The secret formula of the saints: When I am in the cellar of affliction, I look for the Lord's choicest wines.

I find it most true that the greatest temptation outside of hell is to live without temptations; if water stands, it rots; faith is the better for the sharp winter storm in its face and grace withers without adversity. The devil is but God's master fencer to teach us to handle our weapons.

Well's them who are under crosses, and Christ says to them, "Half Mine."

After winter comes the summer. After night comes the dawn. And after every storm, there comes clear, open skies.

Let us be faithful and care for our own part, which is to do and suffer for Him, and lay Christ's part on Himself, and leave it there; duties are ours, events are the Lord's.
