“It is a great mistake that some run into, to suppose that religion consists only in saying our prayers.

“Lord, give me the wisdom to seek skillfulness, but not be taken with my own cleverness. Give me the discernment to perceive excellence, but not be enamored of pedigree and credentials.”

“How is the lack of prosperity a blessing to the righteous? God, in wisdom knowing what is best for them, accordingly deals with them by giving prosperity to them so far as He sees it will turn to their good, and denies it to them so far as He sees it will turn to their hurt. Whenever therefore God gives any temporal blessing to His saints, it is a sign of His favor, and whenever He denies any, the very denial is also a fruit of His favor.”
― William Gouge, A Holy Vision for Family Life
