The Only Instance Of Praying

Every Man Will Have His Own Criterion In Forming His Judgment Of Others. I Depend Very Much On The Effect Of Affliction. I Consider How A Man Comes Out Of The Furnace; Gold Will Lie For A Month In The Furnace Without Losing A Grain.

The World Looks At Ministers Out Of The Pulpit To Know That They Mean In It.

God's Way Of Answering The Christian's Prayer For More Patience, Experience, Hope And Love Often Is To Put Him Into The Furnace Of Affliction.

Philosophy Is A Proud, Sullen Detector Of The Poverty And Misery Of Man. It May Turn Him From The World With A Proud, Sturdy Contempt; But It Cannot Come Forward And Say, Here Are Rest, Grace, Pardon, Peace, Strength, And Consolation.

Every Year Of My Life I Grow More Convinced That It Is Wisest And Best To Fix Our Attention On The Beautiful And The Good, And Dwell As Little As Possible On The Evil And The False.
