Today’s Quote
The Spirit of God is the divine artist, restoring the image of God in a broken soul.
— Richard Sibbes
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
The great King, immortal, invisible—the Divine Person we call the Holy Spirit—is the one who gives life to the soul, or else it would remain dead forever; He makes it sensitive, or else it would never feel; He gives power to the Word preached, or else it would never reach beyond the ear; He breaks the
heart, and He makes it whole again.
There is a mysterious Being on this earth whose work is to renew the fallen and restore the wandering. We cannot see Him or hear Him, yet He lives in some of us as the Lord of our nature. His chosen home is a broken heart and a contrite spirit.

Every good thing in a Christian not only begins but grows and is completed by the sustaining grace of Jesus Christ. Even if my hand were on the golden latch of Heaven, and my foot were on its jasper threshold, I could not take the final step into its
bliss unless the grace that brought me this far also enabled me to complete my journey. Jonah’s declaration is full of wisdom: "Salvation is of the Lord."
