Believe God’s love and power more than you believe your own feelings and experiences. Your rock is Christ, and it is not the rock that ebbs and flows but the sea.
— Samuel Rutherford
The Lordship of Jesus Christ
When Jesus Christ utters a word, he opens his mouth so wide that it embraces all heaven and earth, even though that word be but in a whisper.
— Martin Luther
Spend Your Time
Spend your time in nothing which you know must be repented of; in nothing on which you might not pray for the blessing of God; in nothing which you could not review with a quiet conscience on your dying bed; in nothing which you might not safely and properly be found doing if death should surprise you in the act.
— Richard Baxter
Prayer
If thou wouldst more fully express thyself before the Lord, study, first, thy filthy estate; secondly, God’s promises; thirdly, the heart of Christ.
— John Bunyan
Signs of Forgiveness
Our forgiving of others will not procure forgiveness for ourselves; but our not forgiving others proves that we ourselves are not forgiven.
John Owen
