A golden coffin will be a poor compensation for a damned soul!

Spurgeon’s Daily Help
There comes a time when we will face weakness and illness, and we’ll need to glorify God through our suffering, not just through active service. There’s no day in our short lives that’s guaranteed to be free from sorrow. Beloved reader, don’t set your heart on earthly things—seek the things above, because
here on earth, everything fades away, but in Heaven, joy is eternal. The path of trouble is the road home. Lord, let this thought be a comfort for many weary souls!

A naturalist in Brazil once saw two white water-lilies growing side by side in a lake—one was wonderfully fragrant, while the other smelled like coal tar. They looked alike and grew in the same water, but they were fundamentally different, and their scent
revealed their true nature. In the same way, some people may look like true believers, always hearing the Word, but they lack the sweet fragrance of grace, and this deficiency shows their real character.
