Set no time to the Lord the creator of time, for His time is always best.

We take nothing to the grave with us, but a good or evil conscience... It is true, terrors of conscience cast us down; and yet without terrors of conscience we cannot be raised up again.

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.

Verily, we know not what an evil it is to indulge ourselves, and to make an idol of our will.

It is comfort to the believer that all things are possible.

But the way to overcome is by patience, forgiving and praying for your enemies, in doing whereof you heap coals upon their heads, and your Lord shall open a door to you in your trouble: wait upon Him, as the night watch waiteth for the morning. He will not tarry. Go up to your watch-tower, and come not down, but by prayer, and faith, and hope, wait on.

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.
