Today’s Quote
It is not enough to hear a sermon, but you must eat it down, take in what it commands, and then it will purge your heart. Take the Word and digest it, squeeze its juice into your heart, and it will purge you from all contrary corruption.

Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Oh, you kind and loving hearts who may not be rich in money but are rich in love—and that’s the world’s best wealth—add this golden coin among your silver ones, and it will make them holy.
The love of Christ doesn’t drive out our love for family and friends; instead, it makes our love purer and sweeter.
Remember, human love is very precious. Oh, but to have the love of Christ! His love is "as strong as death and mightier than the grave."
The most overwhelming thought of all is that He loved us when there was nothing good in us at all.

joy to the thirsty who bend down to drink from it. Wasn’t it this river that Ezekiel prophesied about when he said, "Everything that lives and moves wherever the river flows will live"?
