All the prayers in the Scripture you will find to be reasoning with God, not a multitude of words heaped together.

Let us look upon a crucified Christ, the remedy of all our miseries. His cross hath procured a crown, his passion hath expiated our transgression. His death hath disarmed the law, his blood hath washed a believer's soul. This death is the destruction of our enemies, the spring of our happiness, and the eternal testimony of divine love.

Power is God's hand or arm, omniscience is God's eye, mercy is God's delight, eternity is God's duration, but holiness is God's beauty!

A proud faith is as much a contradiction as a humble devil.

Accustom yourself to serious meditation every morning. Fresh airing our souls in heaven will engender in us a purer spirit and nobler thoughts. A morning seasoning will secure us for all the day.

Assurance is the fruit that grows out of the root of faith.

Since nothing but God is eternal, nothing but God is worth the loving.
