{ One Hundred Thirty-Three }

"No care, but all prayer. No anxiety, but much JOYFUL communion with God!" 

- Spurgeon

{ One Hundred Thirty-Two }


"It is ever the Holy Spirit’s work to turn our eyes away from self to Jesus; but Satan’s work is just the opposite of this, for he is constantly trying to make us regard ourselves instead of Christ... look... to Jesus, the author and finisher of thy faith. We shall never find happiness by looking at our prayers, our doings, or our feelings; it is what Jesus is, not what we are, that gives rest to the soul... Keep thine eye simply on him; let his death, his sufferings, his merits, his glories, his intercession, be fresh upon thy mind; when thou wakest in the morning look to him; when thou liest down at night look to him. Oh! let not thy hopes or fears come between thee and Jesus; follow hard after him, and he will never fail thee." 

- C. H. Spurgeon

{ One Hundred Twenty Two }

"Men can come to our help, but they travel slowly, creeping along the earth. Lo, our God comes riding on the heavens. Those who travel on the earth may be stopped by enemies, they certainly will be hindered; but he who rides upon the heavens cannot be stayed nor even delayed. When Jehovah's excellency comes flying upon the sky on the wings of the wind, how gloriously are displayed the swiftness, the certainty, and the all sufficiency of delivering grace . . .
Fall back upon yourselves, lean upon your fellow creatures, trust upon earth born confidences, and you fall upon a rotten foundation that shall give way beneath you; but rest upon your God and upon your God alone, and the stars in heaven shall fight for you . . . and things present and things to come, and heights, and depths, and all the creatures subservient to the will of the omnipotent Creator, shall work together for good for you, seeing that you love God and are depending upon his power."

{ Sixty-Seven }

"Young men and old men, and sisters of all ages, if you love the Lord, get a passion for souls.  Do you not see them?  They are going down to hell by the thousands." 

~Charles Spurgeon
