“ They are my fears of him, too. But who can hinder that which will be? ”
For to speak the truth, there are but few that care thus to spend their time, but choose rather to be speaking of things to no profit.
~ John Bunyan
Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin will entice a man to cease from prayer.
This hill, though high, I covet to ascend; The difficulty will not me offend. For I perceive the way to life lies here. Come, pluck up, heart; let's neither faint nor fear. Better, though difficult, the right way to go, Than wrong, though easy, where the end is woe.
What God says is best, indeed is best, though all men in the world are against it. Seeing, then, that God prefers his religion; seeing God prefers a tender conscience; seeing they that make themselves fools for the kingdom of heaven are wisest; and that the poor man that loveth Christ is richer than the greatest man in the world that hates him: Shame, depart, thou art an enemy to my salvation.
