Today’s Quote
God’s love is the fountain from which all true happiness and blessing flow.
— Richard Sibbes
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
A person can’t please God without also bringing themselves a great deal of happiness. If someone pleases God, it’s because God has accepted them as His child, showered them with blessings, and made them a blessed person in this life. He also guarantees them a crown of everlasting life, which will shine
with unfading brightness long after the crowns of earthly glory have crumbled away. On the other hand, if a person doesn’t please God, they bring sorrow and suffering upon themselves in this life.

Does Jesus love me? Does He confirm it with His own words? Then I won’t make any demands on Him regarding how He treats me. If He loves me, then whatever He does will be done with loving-kindness; He won’t strike His beloved unless love guides the blow;
He won’t abandon His chosen ones, because He never changes. Oh, the indescribable joy of knowing deep in your soul that the heavenly Bridegroom calls you His beloved!
