A sense of the divine presence and indwelling bears the soul... - Charles Haddon Spurgeon

"Faith goes up the stairs that love has built and looks out the windows which hope has opened."

"A whetstone, though it cannot cut, may sharpen a knife that will."

"When you see no present advantage, walk by faith and not by sight. Do God the honor to trust Him when it comes to matters of loss for the sake of principle."

"Hope itself is like a star- not to be seen in the sunshine of prosperity, and only to be discovered in the night of adversity."

"The wide awake man seizes opportunities or makes them, and thus those who are widest awake usually come to the front."
