You must take a house beside the Physician. It will be a miracle if ye be the first sick that Christ hath put away uncured. - Samuel Rutherford

Grace will ever speak for itself and be fruitful in well-doing; the sanctified cross is a fruitful tree.

I know that as night and shadows are good for flowers, and moonlight and dews are better than a continual sun, so is Christ's absence of special use, and that it hath some nourishing virtue in it, and giveth sap to humility, and putteth an edge on hunger, and furnisheth a fair field for faith to put forth itself.

My desire is that my Lord would give me broader and deeper thoughts, to feed myself with wondering at His love.
