THERE'S NO TELLING WHAT DOORS YOUR OBEDIENCE WILL UNLOCK!
"LEARN TO BE AS PATIENT WITH OTHERS AS GOD HAS BEEN WITH YOU."
BE ENCOURAGED, GOD ONLY REMOVES SO HE CAN REPLACE. YOU'LL SOON FIND THAT THE LOSS WAS FOR YOUR GAIN!
NEVER TRUST PEOPLE WHO JUMP SHIP EVERY TIME THE BOAT ROCKS!
WHEN YOU FINALLY SEE ME BLESSED WITH EVERYTHING GOD PROMISED ME, JUST KNOW, I CLAPPED FOR OTHERS WHILE I PATIENTLY WAITED MY TURN. I TRUST GOD TOO MUCH TO GIVE UP NOW! SOMETIMES WHEN GOD SAYS "PEACE, BE STILL", HE'S ACTUALLY TALKING TO US, AND NOT THE STORM.
For why, my brothers and sisters, would you rejoice in silver? Either your silver will perish, or you will, and no one knows which will perish first. So do not rejoice in things such as these. Augustine
When people truly open their minds and contemplate the way in which the universe is ordered and governed, they are amazed-overwhelmed by a sense of the miraculous. Augustine
What God gives us on the account of sanctification we are ready enough to reckon on the score of justification. We have so much of the Pharisee in us by nature that it is sometimes well that our good is hidden from us. —John Owen, Works 6:600
Some know not nor can give an account of the time of their conversion, & therefore cannot be satisfied that the saving work of His grace hath passed upon them. He that is alive may know that he was born, though he knows neither the place where, nor the time when he was so. Owen
Do you know who the upright of the heart is? They are those who wish what God wishes. Therefore, do not try to twist God’s will to your own but correct your will to that of God. The will of God is a rule of conduct. Augustine Rejoice in the light that has no setting; rejoice in the dawn which no yesterday precedes and no tomorrow follows. Augustine
"Christ is your life; such a life as you never knew before, nor could have known apart from him." - Charles Spurgeon
He is the way to heaven. He is the truth that exposed death as a powerless, defeated enemy. He is the light that can push away the clouds. In Him, we can be free of fear. In Him, we can find the peace that passes understanding. That's what the Resurrection means. Ray Bentley
‘Christ dwells in that heart most eminently that hath emptied itself of itself.’ –
Thomas Brooks, ‘The Unsearchable Riches of Christ
“Child of God, you cost Christ too much for Him to forget you.” —Charles Spurgeon

Charles Spurgeon
