We live much of life amid unique choices. Joy is anchored in The One beyond our life.
โ€œThere are times when solitude is better than society, and silence is wiser than speech. We should be better Christians if we were more alone, waiting upon God, and gathering through meditation on His Word spiritual strength for labour in his service. We ought to muse upon the things of God, because we thus get the real nutriment out of them. . . . Why is it that some Christians, although they hear many sermons, make but slow advances in the divine life? Because they neglect their closets, and do not thoughtfully meditate on God's Word. They love the wheat, but they do not grind it; they would have the corn, but they will not go forth into the fields to gather it; the fruit hangs upon the tree, but they will not pluck it; the water flows at their feet, but they will not stoop to drink it. From such folly deliver us, O Lord. . . .โ€
โ€• Charles Spurgeon


โ€œOur anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strengths.โ€
โ€• C. H. Spurgeon


โ€œHope itself is like a star- not to be seen in the sunshine of prosperity, and only to be discovered in the night of adversity.โ€
โ€• Charles Haddon Spurgeon


โ€œIf sinners be damned, at least let them leap to Hell over our dead bodies. And if they perish, let them perish with our arms wrapped about their knees, imploring them to stay. If Hell must be filled, let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go unwarned and unprayed for.โ€
โ€• Charles Spurgeon


โ€œA Bible thatโ€™s falling apart usually belongs to someone who isnโ€™t.โ€
โ€• Charles Spurgeon


โ€œVisit many good books, but live in the Bible.โ€
โ€• Charles Spurgeon


โ€œWhen your will is God's will, you will have your will.โ€
โ€• Charles Spurgeon

Thank You, Lord, for hopeful days,
even though the year
has brought us greatest wind displays,
and tempted us with fear.

Thank You, Lord, the family's home,
and didn't take the trip,
but heal my wife her sickness from,
which gave her health the slip.

Thank You, Lord, for Salvation's Hope,
You gave because Your Son
has come to live, die, live that "soap"
would cleanse in Victory won.

Thank You, Lord, for those, who came
so many years ago.
The pilgrim sailors sought no fame
and hardships they did know.

Thank You, Lord, they desired to live,
where they could serve You best.
'Twas this new country You would give,
protecting through each test.

Thank You, Lord, for each new day,
life, and joy, and liberty.
All we do, and all we say
are best when these are given to Thee.

Thank You, Lord, for You are wise,
and know what next to do.
Your Kingdom's Day beyond our Whys.
The Gift forever, You.
