This world is very large in our hopes, but very small in our hands

                                                   --Archbishop Secker                                                                         

In one thousand trials it is not five hundred of them that work for the believer's good, but nine hundred and ninety-nine of them, and one besides.

                                                 --George Muller      
                      
                                            

The grace of God is free even to the vilest sinners; but the thrones of the Millennial Age are won by sacrifice, service, and victorious achievement

                                                                        --A. B. Simpson

A harp sounds sweetly, yet it hears not its own melody.

                                                              --Archbishop Secker

       

Unless we believe as literally in the Resurrection as we do in the Passion and the Death, we are not Christians at all.

                                                                       -- Bishop Westcott
       

Believers resemble the moon, which emerges from her eclipse by keeping her motion; and ceases not to shine because the dogs bark at her.   
                                                                        --
Archbishop Secker

        

I hope that when Christ comes He will find me either praying or preaching.

                                                                         --Augustine
        
John the Baptist was 'a burning and shining light.'  To shine is not enough, a glowworm will do so:  to burn is not enough, a firebrand will do so.  Light without heat does but little good; and heat without light does much harm.  Give me these Christians who are burning lamps, as well as shining lights.                                                                         --Archbishop Secker    
            
            
We should never land in triumph at the haven of rest, if we were not tossed upon the sea of trouble.  If Joseph had not been Egypt's prisoner, he had never been Egypt's governor.  The iron chains about his feet ushered in the golden chains about his neck.     

                                                                            --
Archbishop Secker

          
It is impossible to be conformed to the world in our outward man, and transformed to God in our inward man.

                                                                            --Archbishop Secker

           

He that would be angry and not sin, must be angry with nothing but sin. 
                                                                            --
Archbishop Secker
