Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Look at your possessions, O believer, and compare your portion with the lot of your fellow-men. Some of them have their portion in the field; they are rich and their harvests yield them a golden increase; but what are harvests compared with your God, who is the God of harvests? What are bursting granaries
compared with him, who is the Gardener, and feeds you with the bread of Heaven? Some have their portion in the city; their wealth is abundant, and flows to them in constant streams, until they become a very reservoir of gold; but what is gold compared with your God? "You are my portion, O Lord."—Psalm 119.

Let the parlor and the drawing-room be adorned with cheerful piety; let the kitchen and the scullery be sanctified with unobtrusive godliness; let the shop and the office, the shed and the factory, be perfumed with unassuming holiness; let forge and bench
and stall and lathe and spinning-jenny all be holiness unto the Lord, and the better times long sighed for will have come at last.
