We live much of life amid unique choices. Joy is anchored in The One beyond our life.
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
(Philippians 2:13, KJV)

The winds of change are blowing strong.
They threaten ev'ry boat,
but Hope should be our daily song
from verses not remote.

"He's given none the fearful ghost,
that causes shaking boots
but power in believing most,
good mind, secure its roots.
"
(II Timothy 1:7, KJV)

"There is no condemnation at all
for those, who are in Christ,
who follow not the fleshly call,
but the Spirit of Lordly Price.
"
(Romans 8:1, KJV)

"Yes, all the Father hath given to me,
shall come to me anon,
and they, whose coming I do see,
I'll lose of them, not one.
"
(John 6:37, KJV)

There is one Christ. His Name, Jesus,
the Savior of the lost.
The keys of death and Hell are thus,
"He paid th'eternal cost."
