Assurance is more than life. It is health, strength, power, vigor, activity, energy, manliness, beauty. - John Charles Ryle

Our Lord has many weak children in His family, many dull pupils in His school, many raw soldiers in His army, and many lame sheep in His flock. Yet He bears with them all, and casts none away.

[T]he parent who tries to train without setting a good example is building with one hand and pulling down with the other.

We live in an age when there is a false glare on the things of time, and a great mist over the things of eternity.
