Spurgeon’s Daily Help
As a man does not make himself spiritually alive, so neither can he keep himself so. He can feed on spiritual food, and so preserve his spiritual strength; he can walk in the commandments of the Lord, and so enjoy rest and peace, but still the inner life is dependent upon the Spirit as much for its after
existence as for its first begetting. No man himself, even when converted, has any power, except as that power is daily, constantly, and perpetually infused into him by the Spirit.
The motive-power of action to a believing man lies hard by the realization that God, for Christ's sake, has forgiven his iniquities.

The Spurgeon Birthday Book
February 19
Heroes who have been most distinguished for fury in the fight have been tender of heart as little children; sharp were their swords to the foe, but gentle their hands towards the weak. It is the index of a noble nature that it can be majestic as a lion
in the presence of enemies, and roar like a young lion in the midst of conflict, and yet it has a dove's eye and a maiden's heart. Such is our Lord Jesus Christ; he is the conquering Captain of salvation, but he is meek and lowly of heart.
