Spurgeon’s Daily Help
We are none of us so much awake as we should be. With a perishing world around us, to sleep is cruel. Oh, that we may leave forever the couch of ease, and go forth with flaming torches to meet the coming Bridegroom! My heart wakes. This is a happy sign. Life is not extinct, though sadly smothered. When
our renewed heart struggles against our natural heaviness, we should be grateful to sovereign grace for keeping a little vitality within the body of this death. Jesus will hear our hearts, will help our hearts, will visit our hearts; for the voice of the wakeful heart is really the voice of our Beloved, saying, "Open to me." Holy zeal will surely unbar the door.

The Spurgeon Birthday Book

As to the revelation with which our heavenly Father has so graciously favored us, how little have we gazed upon it in the clear daylight of its own glory! Our prejudices, fancies, follies, iniquities, unbeliefs, and vanities have raised a November mist
through which Heaven's own stars can scarcely dart their cheering rays. There is light enough abroad if the dense fog would suffer it to reach us; but for want of the wind of Heaven to chase away the obscuring vapors, we walk in twilight, and see but glimmerings of truth.
