Spurgeon’s Daily Help
If you want to find God, He is present on every hilltop and in every valley; God is everywhere in creation. But if you’re looking for a special display of His presence, if you want to know where the secret place of the Most High is, you need to go where you find the true believers, the church. This is
where He makes His presence known—in the hearts of those who are humble and repentant, who tremble at His word. Every church is more precious to our Lord than a constellation in the sky; just as He is precious to His saints, so are they precious to Him.

The greatest obstacle to learning how to swim is a lack of confidence. Struggle, and you’ll sink; relax, and the water will support you. The hardest part is lifting your feet off the bottom and trusting the water to hold you. Once you trust the water's
buoyancy, you’ll soon master swimming, but you must fully commit. This is just like faith: there can be no visible support, no reliance on yourself. Let go of self-confidence and throw yourself entirely on Jesus, and you will be saved.
