Humility is a strange flower; it grows best in winter weather, and under storms of affliction.
Samuel RutherfordGrace will ever speak for itself and be fruitful in well-doing; the sanctified, cross is a fruitful tree.
Samuel RutherfordYou shall by faith sustain yourself and comfort yourself in your Lord, and be strong in His power; for you are in the beaten and common way to heaven, when you are under our Lord's crosses. You have reason to rejoice in it, more than in a crown of gold; and rejoice and be glad to bear the reproaches of Christ.
Samuel Rutherford
