The root-trouble of the present distress is that the Church has more faith in the world and the flesh than in the Holy Ghost, and things will get no better till we get back to His realized presence and power. Samuel Chadwick Prayer is nothing but the breathing that out before the Lord, that was first breathed into us by the Spirit of the Lord.

The greatest and the hottest fires that ever were on earth are but ice in comparison to the fire of hell.

Sin in a wicked man is like poison in a serpent; it is in its natural place.

The only ground of God's love is his love.

Repentance is the vomit of the soul.

Humility can weep over other men's weaknesses, and joy and rejoice over their graces.

There is no such way to get much grace, as to be thankful for a little grace. He who opens his mouth wide in praise, shall have his heart lled with graces. Ingratitude stops the ear of God, and shuts the hand of God, and turns away the heart of the God of grace; and therefore we had need to be thankful for a little grace.
