“Ah! sinner, remember this, there is no way on earth effectually to be rid of the guilt, filth, and power of sin, but by believing in a Saviour. It is not resolving, it is not complaining, it is not mourning, but believing, that will make thee divinely victorious over that body of sin that to this day is too strong for thee, and that will certainly be thy ruin, if it be not ruined by a hand of faith." (Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices, 220)”
― Thomas Brooks

“Contentment is believing that God's provision is enough for our physical needs, that His presence is enough for our emotional needs, and that His providence is enough for our future needs.”
― Richard Swenson

“Christ crucified is not a riddle for sages, but a plain truth for plain people; true, it is meat for men, but it is also milk for babes. (Come ye children, p50)”
― Spurgeon, Charles H.

“[I]t is not hasty reading--but serious meditating upon holy and heavenly truths, that make them prove sweet and profitable to the soul. It is not the bee’s touching of the flower, which gathers honey--but her abiding for a time upon the flower, which draws out the sweet. It is not he who reads most--but he who meditates most, who will prove the choicest, sweetest, wisest and strongest Christian.”
― Thomas Brooks, Precious Remedies Against Satan's Devices
