Those who can take that crabbed tree handsomely upon their back, and fasten it on cannily, shall find it such a burden as wings unto a bird, or sails to a ship.
Samuel RutherfordEvery day we may see some new thing in Christ. His love hath neither brim nor bottom.
Samuel RutherfordI bless the Lord that all our troubles come through Christ's fingers, and that He casteth sugar among them and casteth in some ounce withts of heaven and of the spirit of glory in our cup.
Samuel RutherfordHowbeit your faith seeth but the black side of providence, yet it hath a better side, and God shall let you see it. ... โFor we know that all things work together for good to them that love God,โ ergo, shipwreck, losses, &c., work together for the good of them that love God: hence I infer, that losses, disappointments, ill tongues, loss of friends, houses, or country, are God's workmen, set on work to work out good to you, out of everything that befalleth you.
Samuel Rutherford
