God would have us part with nothing for Him, but that which will damn us if we keep it! The only design He has for us is to make us holy.

Spurgeon’s Daily Help
If we fear the Lord, we can expect timely help when things are at their worst. Storms and darkness do not keep angels from us. Seraphim are not too proud to visit even the poorest members of God's family. If angels’ visits are rare during ordinary times, they will be frequent during our darkest nights
of trouble.
Is this a time of distress for you, dear reader? Then ask for special help. Jesus is the Angel of the covenant, and if you seek His presence now, He will not deny you. His presence brings comfort to the heart.

Meditation is like the tree of life in the garden of our spiritual lives, and its fruit refreshes the soul. Just as the best part of a sacrifice was reserved for the Lord, so our best thoughts should be dedicated to Him. Our meditation should be focused
on the Lord Himself, for this is most pleasing to Him. "My meditation of Him shall be sweet."
