“As the mercies that are with the Lord are tender, great, rich, a multitude and manifold; so they are mercies that DIMINISH NOT in the using, but that rather increase in the exercising of them.”  John Bunyan (1628-1688)

“When a man dares to pour out his complaint before the Lord’s own face, his woes are real, and not the result of petulance or a rebellious spirit.”  Charles H. Spurgeon  (1834-1892)

“When we seriously consider who God was, for whom He suffered, and what He endured, we cannot but perceive God’s infinite and irreconcilable abhorrence of all iniquity.”  John Colquhoun; 1748-1827)

“We may and ought to trust God’s promise to bless us, even though we may see no visible appearance of its fulfillment. The vision will surely come and not tarry.”  Thomas V. Moore (1779-1852)

“Faith and fear go hand in hand.  Faith keeps the heart cheerful, fear keeps the heart serious.  Faith keeps the heart from sinking in despair, fear keeps it from floating in presumption.”  Thomas Watson  (1620-1686)

“Thou hast commanded us to keep thy statutes diligently.”  We acknowledge, Lord, our obligation; but we feel our impotency.  Lord, help us; we look unto thee.  “Oh that our ways were directed to keep thy statutes!  “Give what thou commands; and then command what thou wilt.”  (Augustine; 354-430)

“We cannot conceive how many of God’s kind counsels have been concerning us; how many good turns he has done for us; and what variety of mercies we have received from him…We cannot conceive the multitude of God’s compassions, which are all new every morning.”  Matthew Henry  (1662-1714)

“Cast not away your confidence because God defers his performances.  Though providences run cross, though they move backwards and forwards, you have a sure and faithful word to rely upon.  Promises, though they be for a time seemingly delayed, cannot be finally frustrated.  Dare not to harbor such a thought within yourselves.  The being of God may as well fail as the promise of God.”  (Timothy Cruso; 1656-1697)
