SERMON ILLUSTRATION FROM SPURGEON- to describe God’s power in our weakness.

Spurgeon was a master illustrator. In your preaching, you can use this illustration to describe God’s power in our weakness.

 

It is well that it is in our hearts today to do some little thing for the glory of God. As an old Puritan says, we give as tokens of love a cracked sixpence or a flower that soon fades. It is accepted as a token of love, not for its intrinsic value, but as an emblem of what our heart feels and would do if it could.

 

Even so, it is with the Lord and the service his people seek to render to him. He takes our trifles and makes much of them.
