I wonder many times that ever a child of God should have a sad heart, considering what their Lord is preparing for them.

Let your children be as so many flowers, borrowed from God. If the flowers die or wither, thank God for a summer loan of them.

I assure you by the Lord, your adversaries shall get no advantage against you, except you sin, and offend your Lord, in your sufferings.

Grace tried is better than grace, and more than grace; it is glory in its infancy

Think it not hard if you get not your will, nor your delights in this life; God will have you to rejoice in nothing but himself.

We are as near to heaven as we are far from self, and far from the love of a sinful world.

You will not be carried to Heaven lying at ease upon a feather bed.
