“Remember, O Lord, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old.
Remember not the sins of my youth, and my rebellious ways: according to your love remember me, for you are good, O Lord. . . . For the sake of your name, O Lord, forgive my iniquity, though it is great. Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted. The troubles of my heart have multiplied; free me from my anguish. Look upon my affliction and my distress and take away all my sins. (from Ps. 25:6–7, 11, 16–18)”

“we are not to look to what men in themselves deserve, but to attend to the image of God, which exists in all, and to which we owe all honour and love.”
― John Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion

“More truly may we say, that the life of a Christian man is constant study and exercise in mortifying the flesh, until it is certainly slain, and the Spirit of God obtains dominion in us.”
― John Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion

“fear itself will teach us that no time ought to be without prayer.”
― John Calvin, Institutes of the Christian Religion
