What is essential is a daily emptying of self, a crucifying, and a killing of the flesh, which results in the denial of our own ambitions and being completely submissive to the God of heaven and earth. This, to say the least, is a substantial undertaking. (Unknown)

The great act of sovereignty was God’s decree for making the world; and of doing, or permitting to be done, whatever should be in it, to the folding of it up. The heavens and the earth, and all the hosts of them, as yet had no being; it was at his pleasure whether he would make them or not; and if he would, what being he would give them, to what end, and how that end should be accomplished. And that these were all ascertained by the decree is evident; for “known unto God were all his works,” which he would do in time, ‘from the beginning of the world.'”

(Elisha Coles; 1608-1688)
