INSPIRATIONAL WEEKEND QUOTES


Instead of complaining at his lot, a contented man is thankful that his condition and circumstances are no worse than they are. Instead of greedily desiring something more than the supply of his present need, he rejoices that God still cares for him. Such an one is "content" with such as he has (Heb. 13:5).
|| Arthur W. Pink


Christian contentment is that sweet, inward, quiet, gracious frame of spirit, which freely submits to and delights in God's wise and fatherly disposal in every condition.
|| Jeremiah Burroughs

Did you never run for shelter in a storm, and find fruit which you expected not? Did you never go to God for safeguard, driven by outward storms, and there find unexpected fruit?
|| John Owen

To bless God for mercies is the way to increase them; to bless Him for miseries is the way to remove them.
|| William Dyer

Those blessings are sweetest that are won with prayers and won with thanks.
|| Thomas Goodwin

The riches of His free grace cause me daily to triumph over all the temptations of the wicked one, who is very vigilant, and seeks all occasions to disturb me.
|| George Whitefield

God will not be behind-hand in love to us: for our drop, we shall receive an ocean.
|| Thomas Watson

Chastisement is designed for our good, to promote our highest interests. Look beyond the rod to the All-wise hand that wields it!
|| Arthur W. Pink

For a Christian to defy adversities is to "despise" chastisement. Instead of hardening himself to endure stoically, there should be a melting of the heart.
|| Arthur W. Pink

Whatsoever we have over-loved, idolized, and leaned upon, God has from time to time broken it, and made us to see the vanity of it; so that we find the readiest course to be rid of our comforts is to set our hearts inordinately upon them.
|| John Flavel
