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

That writing's such a heavy feat,
I must confess and dare repeat.
For telling words so plainly clear
are boring to the listening ear.

The often use of words of sense
won't need to readers recompense.
The showing words in every way
will draw attention, cause to stay.

But when I find one just like me,
with heart so glad my words to see,
then we'll have much to share with joy.
These stories will us oft employ.

The fabric of all life is knit
as one within the senses frame
by One, Who makes all things to fit
and works within all life the same.

The things we see are just the start
of all existence, that He's made.
What wisdom He would swift impart
to souls, who bowed and Him obeyed!

This Jesus Christ, the living Lord
forever through Th'eternal Day
holds all existence by His Word.
Consistent is the world displayed.

The warp and woof of the physical universe
is always maintained within the Mind of Christ.
By science, we test and learn the best, the worst
but salvation alone by His paid price.

"16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

"17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

"18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

"19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;..." (Colossians 1:16-19, KJV)

Gentle writers, who prepare,
may your words be true.
Guide the readers to the mark.
Drawn them all the way through.

Good success be yours this day
to break through and express
the many thoughts from your own heart
of joy and happiness.

Gentle writers, may you see
characters most real.
Interact and thrash about,
until their hopes your feel.

Find great strength to craft your book
through vict'ry out of trial
for persons in your book will be
your friends in a little while.

Sticky clothes on sticky limbs, washing helps not much.
Wetness bathes each blast of air, freely pores the sweat.
Coolish breath brings happiness, hope remains a balm.
Overnights of sweet relief, soon they will be here.
