Shout, for the blessed Jesus reigns; through distant lands his triumphs spread; and sinners, freed from endless pains, own him their Saviour and their Head.
— Benjamin Beddome
Priorities
Let us use worldly things as wise pilgrims do their staves and other necessaries convenient for their journey. So long as they help us forward in our way, let us make use of them, and accordingly esteem them. But if they become troublesome hindrances and cumbersome burdens, let us leave them behind us, or cast them away.
— George Downame
Overcome the World
The best way to overcome the world, is not with morality or self-discipline. Christians overcome the world by seeing the beauty and excellence of Christ. They overcome the world by seeing something more attractive than the world — the Lord Jesus Christ!
— Thomas Chalmers
Prayer
God has commanded us to pray that we might be prepared to receive from him what he is always ready and willing to confer upon us.
— Ezekiel Hopkins
The Lord’s Day
Safely through another week God has brought us on our way; Let us now a blessing seek, waiting in his courts today; Day of all the week the best, emblem of eternal rest: Day of all the week the best, emblem of eternal rest.
— John Newton
