Oh! One hour with God infinitely exceeds all the pleasures and delights of this lower world.
– David Brainerd –
The love of God is peculiarly the work of the Holy Ghost … Therefore the way to get it is earnestly to pray. … We are no more able to love the Lord than cold water is able heat itself … so the Holy Ghost must breed that fire of love in us, it must be kindled from heaven, or else we shall never have it.
– John Preston –
1587-1628
