There is not a soul in Hell but knows that it was a mad exchange to forfeit Heaven for a little mirth, or fleshly pleasure, or worldly riches or honor.

Spurgeon’s Daily Help
And she said, Truth, Lord: yet the dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters' table.—Matthew 15:27.
My sins are many, but oh! it is nothing to Jesus to take them all away. "It will be but a small thing for him to give me full remission, although it will be an infinite blessing for me to receive
it." The woman opens her soul wide, expecting great things of Jesus, and he fills it with his love. Dear reader, do the same. She laid fast hold upon him, and drew arguments even out of his words; she believed great things of him, and she thus overcame him. SHe WON The VICTORY BY BELIEVING In HIM. Her case is an instance of prevailing faith; and if we would conquer like her, we must imitate her.

He who is the feeder of sparrows, will also furnish you with what you need. Sit not down in despair; hope on, hope ever. Take up the arms of faith against a sea of fears, "and by opposing end them." There is One above who cares for you, though all men
deny you sympathy. He gave his Son to redeem you, and he will not suffer his redeemed to be famished. He will hear your cry. At any rate, try him and see.
