Affliction brings sweet solace – Ichabod Spencer

Some of our sweetest solaces never could have been known but for the afflictions which bring them. What tender friendships gather around us when we are sick! What hearts beat for us and sympathize with us, and would, if they could, take themselves the pain that racks us! We should never know what tenderness and pity and kindness there is in the world, if our trials did not bring them out. Many of our calamities attach us more to our fellow-men, and make us think better of the world than we did before.

– Ichabod Spencer –

Grace is a ring of gold – Thomas Brooks

Christ’s hold of you – Charles Spurgeon

You were made for this time in history – Dale Partridge

This generation of Christians was made for this time in history. Those strong-willed kids of yours … they were made for the heat that’s coming. That bold husband or that theologian of a wife you have … they were designed for this coming rise in hostility. God made all of us who are alive for this very moment, and He will give each of His children the grace required for what’s ahead.
