Quotes from Charles Spurgeon

How sweet it is to learn the Savior's love when nobody else loves us! When friends flee, what a blessed thing it is to see that the Savior does not forsake us but still keeps us and holds us fast and clings to us and will not let us go!

What an encouraging thought that Jesus - our beloved Husband - can find comfort in our lowly feeble gifts! Can this be, for it seems far too good to be true? May we then be willing to endure trials or even death itself if through these hardships we are assisted in bringing gladness to Immanuel's heart.

To feel not only submitted but willing to be anything or nothing as the Lord wills it - this is, in truth, to sing a song to our Well Beloved.

O God, we praise Thee for keeping us till this day, and for the full assurance that Thou wilt never let us go.

We must show sympathy with sinners, but not with their sins.

It is, perhaps, one of the hardest struggles of the Christian life to learn this sentence-- "Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto Thy name be glory."

Our griefs cannot mar the melody of our praise, we reckon them to be the bass part of our life's song, 'He hath done great things for us, whereof we are glad.'

Life is short and we have scarcely begun to live when we are called to die.

The worst evils of life are those which do not exist except in our imagination.

Jesus poured out his soul in life before he poured it out unto death

Does the world satisfy thee? Then thou hast thy reward & portion in this life; make much of it, for thou shalt know no other joy

Alas, if our children lose the crown of life, it will be but a small consolation that they have won the laurels of literature or art.
