Today’s Quote
Is Christ God’s Beloved, with and in whom He is well pleased? And is He not your Beloved?
— Thomas Goodwin
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Sinner, take comfort in knowing that God sees you when you begin to repent. He doesn’t just see you with His usual gaze, the way He looks at all people; He sees you with intense interest. He has been watching you in all your sin and sorrow, hoping that you would turn to Him. Now that He sees the first
signs of grace in you, He watches with joy. No watchman on a castle tower has ever been more joyful at the first light of dawn than God is when He sees the first desire for Him in your heart.

Evil thoughts are at the core of sin; they are the source from which sin is brewed, the spark that ignites the devil’s temptations. They are the churn where the milk of imagination is turned into plans and actions; the nest where all evil birds lay their
eggs. Be sure that just as fire burns brushwood as well as logs, God will punish sinful thoughts just as surely as He punishes sinful deeds.
