The weightiest end of the cross of Christ that is laid upon you, lieth upon your strong Savior.

It is impossible to be submissive and religiously patient, if ye stay your thoughts down among the confused rollings and wheels of second causes, as, O, the place! O, the time! O, if this had been, this had not followed! O, the linking of this accident with this time and place! Look up to the master motion and the first wheel.

No pen, no words, no image can express to you the loveliness of my only, only Lord Jesus.

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

I think it is possible on earth to build a young, new Jerusalem, a little, new heaven of this surpassing love. God, either send me more of this love, or take me quickly over the water, where I may be filled with his love.

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.
