Today’s Quote
Many in the church are toiling like ants to gain this world’s dross, but are as idle as a butterfly in regard to divine things.
— Charles Spurgeon
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Don't hold back any part of your commitment. Fully surrender every thought and desire in your heart. Strive to have one goal and one purpose, and for this, give God the control of your heart. Ask for more of the Holy Spirit's influence, so that when your soul is preserved and protected by Him, it may
be directed into a single path—one that runs deep, pure, clear, and peaceful. Let the only boundaries of your life be God's will, and let the only direction be the love of Christ and a desire to please Him.

Community is strength; isolation is weakness. Alone, even a strong old tree may fall in a storm, but in a forest, where the trees support each other, they stand firm against the hurricane. The followers of Jesus gather together; the social aspect is a
core part of Christianity. Finding a brother in faith is like finding a treasure, and keeping a friend is like holding onto gold.

Spurgeon’s Quote
We must continue to drive at men's hearts until they are broken and then we must keep on preaching Christ crucified until their hearts are bound up.
