I have a great need for Christ; I have a great Christ for my need. ~ Spurgeon

A true Christian is one who has not only peace of conscience, but war within.- J. C. Ryle

Will a man ever love his enemies? He may come to do

good to them that hate him; but when will he pray

for them that despitefully use him and persecute

him? When? When he is the child of his Father in heaven. Then

shall he love his neighbor as himself, even if that

neighbor be his enemy. -George MacDonald (1824-1905) _Unspoken Sermons_, Series One [1867]

Death is the divine cure of many ills. -George MacDonald (1824-1905) _The Miracles Of Our Lord_ [1870]

We are so full of ourselves, and feel so grand, that

we should never come to know what poor creatures we

are, never begin to do better, but for the knockdown

blows that the loving God gives us. We do not like

them, but he does not spare us for that. George MacDonald (1824-1905) _A Rough Shaking_ [1890]
