Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Oh, it must have been wonderful to live with Christ. Surely, sorrows back then were just blessings in disguise, because they gave people a reason to go to Jesus and have Him remove them. Some of us might wish we could have rested our weary heads on Jesus’ chest and been born in that blessed time when
we could have heard His gentle voice say, "Let the weary come to me." But listen to how kindly Jesus speaks now: "I won’t leave you without comfort; I will pray to the Father, and He will send you another Comforter, who will stay with you forever."

A person who lives by cunning and manipulation is like a sailor trying to navigate with an unfavorable wind. He has to constantly change course, first aiming for one point and then another, and he’ll make slow progress toward his true goal. But a person
who has God’s life in them and follows the path of truth is like a strong steamship that plows straight ahead, regardless of wind or tide, because its power comes from within.
