Prayer is climbing up into the heart of God!

Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Always remember that strictly following your Savior’s commands is better than any outward religious act. Listening attentively to His teachings is better than offering the best sacrifices. If you’ve been neglecting even the smallest of Christ’s instructions, I urge you to stop being disobedient. "To
obey" in even the tiniest matter "is better than sacrifice." It’s a blessing to be teachable like a little child, but it’s an even greater blessing to put into practice what you’ve learned, down to the last detail.

Who would envy the Russian Empress for her grand ice palace? It was a perfect symbol of worldly glory: it looked beautiful but was cold; it was bright but temporary, clear as crystal but completely lacking in comfort. Give me a simple, humble life warmed
by the joy of God’s love. The person whom God loves lives in a far brighter palace, one that will never melt away.
