Daily Christian quotes to direct, inspire, encourage, and help ordinary Christians in the rough and tumble of their daily lives!
God loves a thankful Christian! Job thanked God when He took all away: “The Lord has taken away — blessed be the name of the Lord!” Job 1:21. Many will thank God when He gives; Job thanks Him when He takes away, because he knew that God would work good out of it.
— Thomas Watson (1620-1686)
Mercy sweetens all God’s other attributes. God’s holiness without mercy, and his justice without mercy, would be terrible.
— Thomas Watson (1620-1686)
Keep your heart as you would keep a Garden. Your heart is a garden (Song of Solomon 4:12); weed all sin out of your heart. Among the flowers of the heart, weeds will be growing—the weeds of pride, malice, and covetousness: these grow without planting and cultivating. Therefore be weeding your heart daily by prayer, examination, and repentance.
— Thomas Watson
A Christian should keep two books always by him, one in which to write his sins, that he may be made humble; the other in which to write his mercies, that he may be kept thankful.
— Thomas Watson
A Christian without meditation is like a soldier without weapons, or a workman without tools.
— Thomas Watson
