Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Ah! if we did but love Christ better, my brothers and sisters, if we lived nearer to the cross, if we knew more of the value of his blood, if we wept like him over Jerusalem, if we felt more what it was for souls to perish, and what it was for men to be saved—if we did but rejoice with Christ in the
prospect of his seeing the travail of his soul, and being abundantly satisfied—if we did but delight more in the divine decree, that the kingdoms of this world shall be given to Christ, I am sure we should all of us find more ways and more means for the sending forth of the gospel of Christ.

The Spurgeon Birthday Book
April 15
Behold, at this hour our moral history is being preserved for eternity. Processes are at work which will perpetuate our every act, and word, and thought. Not alone the last page, but every line and letter of our actual history is being stereotyped for
the world's perusal in the day which shall reveal the secrets of men. We are not writing upon the water, but carving upon imperishable material. The chapters of our history are "graven with an iron pen and lead in the rock forever."
