For the past ten years God has enabled me to keep a perfect, unbroken purpose to serve Him with my whole heart. No temptation has swerved that steadfast purpose. “HOLINESS TO THE LORD” (Exodus 28:36) has been my motto. My heart pants after Him and, as I seek Him in fervent, patient, believing prayer and in diligent searching of His Word, He is deepening the work of grace in my soul.

O Lord my God, in you I put my trust. Psalms 7:1
“O God, one day we will laugh ourselves to scorn that we looked for so little from you.”

Our mercies far outweigh our afflictions. For one affliction—we have a thousand mercies! The sea of God’s mercy swallows up our few drops of affliction!
– Thomas Watson –
Man was so engineered by God that the presence of the Creator within the creature is indispensable to His humanity.
– Ian Thomas –
Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.
– Thomas Watson –
Humility is the highest grace that can adorn the Christian character.
– JC Ryle –
The Bible teaches we are not only saved by grace, but we also live by grace every day of our lives. It is this important aspect of grace that seems to be so little understood or practiced by Christians.

from Transforming Grace
Until we taste the bitterness of our own misery we will never relish the sweetness of God’s mercy. Until we see how foul our sins have made us we will never pay our tribute of praise to Christ for washing us… If you would know the heart of your sin then you must know the sins of your heart!
