“For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee;” here is not only a gathering after a forsaking, but great mercies” to make amends for “a small moment.” He who hath engaged to be our God forever, cannot depart forever.” Timothy Cruso (1656-1697)

“Now, soul, thou art molested with many lusts that infest thee, and obstruct thy commerce with heaven; yea, thou hast complained to thy God, what loss thou hast suffered by them; is it now presumption to expect relief from him, that he will rescue thee from them; that thou mayest serve him without fear, who is thy liege Lord? You have the saints for your precedents; who, when they have been in combat with their corruptions, yea, been foiled by them, have even then exercised their faith on God, and expected the ruin of those enemies, which, for the present, have overrun them.” (William Gurnall; 1617-1679)

“He has prevented us with his goodness, when he saw nothing in us but impatience and unbelief, when we were like Jonas in the belly of hell, his bowels yearned over us, and his power brought us safe to land. What did we to hasten his deliverance, or to obtain his mercy? If he had never come to our relief till he saw something in us to invite him, we had not yet been relived. No more did we contribute to our restoration than we do to the rising of the sun, or the approach of day.” Timothy Rogers
