God will not be behind-hand in love to us: for our drop, we shall receive an ocean.

Sin has the devil for its father, shame for its companion, and death for its wages.

Affliction has a sting, out withal a wing: sorrow shall fly away.

Better have men reproach you for being good, than have God damn you for being wicked. Be not laughed out of your religion. If a lame man laugh at you for walking upright, will you therefore limp?

Solve it. Solve it quickly, solve it right or wrong. If you solve it wrong, it will come back and slap you in the face, and then you can solve it right. Lying dead in the water and doing nothing is a comfortable alternative because it is without risk, but it is an absolutely fatal way to manage a business.

It is hard to carry a full cup without spilling, and a full estate without sinning.

Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.
