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

The sun, that shines in brightness rare
declares the new day's come.
The hope to live in peace o'er there
are joyful thoughts in sum.

Salvation bought on Calvary's cross
by Jesus, Son of God
shows the Light of life, restoring loss
in One we all must laud.

Up from the grave He surely rose,
fore'er His right to reign.
The sons He made in lives He chose
await His coming again.

Be faithful all, who hope in Him.
Returns He soon enough.
To praise His Name in lasting hymn
erases pain, now rough.

Uncertain days, a century at best
are all endured on Earth,
but Heaven's abode beyond the test
is given through His new birth.

Receive Him, now, this very day,
transformed, renewed, and whole
you'll be forever on display,
a blessing ever told.

For Jesus Christ, the loving Lord
endured a moment's loss
to save forever says His Word
upon one cruel cross.

He died and rose forevermore
to save souls in their need.
Just look to Him, no long implore,
redeemed, His lasting seed.
