“There 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. . . .” ― Charles Spurgeon “Our anxiety does not empty tomorrow of its sorrows, but only empties today of its strengths.” ― C. H. Spurgeon “Hope itself is like a star- not to be seen in the sunshine of prosperity, and only to be discovered in the night of adversity.” ― Charles Haddon Spurgeon “If 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.” ― Charles Spurgeon “A Bible that’s falling apart usually belongs to someone who isn’t.” ― Charles Spurgeon “Visit many good books, but live in the Bible.” ― Charles Spurgeon “When your will is God's will, you will have your will.” ― Charles Spurgeon https://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/2876959.Charles_Haddon_Spurgeon (Philippians 2:13, KJV)    |
"For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him." (II Chronicles 16:9a-b, KJV) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "O, Lord, where are the perfect hearts, not perfect in themselves, but perfect where redemption starts, not righteous on the shelves?" "We have no right to blessings ask, to stand our goodness on, but in Your Mercy, there to bask, and that we ask anon." "We all deserve the worst of Hell. Each breath and heartbeat is grace. O, speak Your Kindness, Hope, please tell, and shine on us Your Face." Too oft today's a holiday. We pray our prayers and split. We cry at Judgment's full display. We get what we should get, But He, Who sees examines all the deepest parts of men to find the ones, who hear His call in spite of all their sins. The God of Mercy mercy loves, condemns no broken souls, confessing wrong, who look Above for Grace to be made whole. Though be we few, we pray-ers, still, our longing faith and needs, we pour them towards His blessed Will, and rest upon His Deeds. by Jay O’Toole on May 5th, 2022 |
