Spurgeon’s Daily Help
There's not a spider hanging on a king's wall that doesn't have a purpose; there's not a nettle in a churchyard that doesn't serve a role; there's not a single insect fluttering in the breeze that doesn't fulfill a divine plan. And I refuse to believe that God created any person, especially any Christian,
to be insignificant or purposeless. He made you for a reason. Discover what that purpose is; find your place and fill it. Even if it's a small role, like chopping wood or carrying water, do something in this great battle for God and truth.

Time flies so quickly that not even the fastest train can catch it, and even a lightning flash can't keep up. Before we know it, a lifetime has passed. We will soon see the great white throne! We will soon stand before the judgment seat of God! Let's
prepare for that day, the greatest of all days, when the Ancient of Days will take His seat. Let's not live only in the fleeting present, but let's focus our lives on the realities of the eternal future.
