“Preparation for heaven does not consist in rising to any imaginary standard of piety, in being as holy as we may consider some illustrious saints, in rising to certain frames of which we have heard and which we have desired; but in being filled as full of the Holy Spirit as our capacities can bear.”  (George Burrows)

“Lo! He smiles; He weeps.  That dark brow unbends.  Those withdrawn arms are stretched out.  Thou art in His embrace.  He cannot refrain Himself.  He makes Himself known to thee,–to thee, the chief of sinners—to whom He rejoices affectionately to say,–I am Jesus, thy Savior, thy friend, thy brother.”  (R. C. Candlish; 1806-1873)

“Anxiety about secular circumstances, about the success of our worldly plans, about our temporal tomorrow, about provisions for ourselves in old age, for our children when we are gone, evermore betrays a lack of confidence in the Fatherly providence of that God who clothes the lilies of the field, and feeds the fowls of the air.”  (David Thomas  1813-1894)

“When the fountain of the heart is purified, the streams from the lips will be pure also.”  (F.G. Marchant)

“The Redeemer is glorified, in that he proves sufficient to redeem those who are exceeding sinful, in that his blood proves sufficient to wash away the greatest guilt, in that he is able to save men to the uttermost, and in that he redeems even from the greatest misery.”  (Jonathan Edwards; 1703-1758)

“How cold and poor are our warmest thoughts towards God!  How unspeakably loving and gloriously rich are his thoughts towards us!”  (R. A. Fausset; 1821-1910)
