Faith is Good for Everything – Charles Spurgeon
(Faith) is good for everything—good for the timid to make them strong, good for the rash to make them wise; it is good for those who are desponding to make them brave, and good for those who are too daring, to make them discreet. There is no respect in which faith is not useful to us, therefore, whatever you leave out, see to your faith; if you forget all besides, be careful above all that ye take the shield of faith (Ephesians 6:16).
– Charles Spurgeon –
from the sermon “The Shield of Faith”, October 27,1861
