if any man thinks ill of you, do not be angry with him. For you are worse than he thinks you to be. - Charles Haddon Spurgeon

When you speak of heaven, let your face light up... When you speak of hell well then, your everyday face will do.

If you are renewed by grace, and were to meet your old self, I am sure you would be very anxious to get out of his company.

No dependence can be placed upon our natural qualities, or our spiritual attainments; but God abideth faithful. He is faithful in His love; He knows no variableness, neither shadow of turning. He is faithful to His purpose; He doth not begin a work and then leave it undone. He is faithful to His relationships; as a Father He will not renounce His children, as a friend He will not deny His people, as a Creator He will not forsake the work of His own hands.
