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 shines hotter ev'ry day,
mysterious and rare.
The Truth is showing all to say,
"Conviction's clear with care."

How bright it is! The rays unknown,
not often seen by man.
Are these the days with normal flown
when Judgment comes by Plan?

To hydrate Self, we that do know,
before the heat deflates.
Be careful when we plant or mow
to keep alive to date.

The desert heat is bright always.
No trees nor buildings shade
the awesome power of the days
as Nature, God obeys.

But when the desert heat is seen
throughout the lands up north,
it's time to understand what means
these days he's bringing forth.

The God, Who speaks through Written Word,
now speaks through Earth and sky,
"The days for calling Me 'The Lord'
are closing pretty nigh.
"

"Before I take My Bride away,
you can yet bow the knee,
but after, 'Lord' you then may say,
'twill be My Victory.
"

His heated Presence grows, today.
Salvation draweth nigh.
Receive Salvation and obey,
redeemed of His Hand by.
