In the gospel there is a salve for every sore and a remedy for every malady. There is no spiritual disease, but there is power in Christ for the cure of it!
— Matthew Henry
Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Love to Christ smooths the path of duty, and wings the feet to travel it: it makes the life of sincere devotion.
Love has a clear eye; but it can see only one thing—it is blind to every interest but that of its Lord; it sees things in the light of his glory, and weighs actions in the scales of his honor;
it counts royalty but drudgery if it cannot reign for Christ, but it delights in servitude as much as in honor, if it can thereby advance the Master's kingdom; its end sweetens all its means; its object lightens its toil, and removes its weariness.

Truth runs in two parallel lines, if not in three or more; and when the Holy Spirit sets before us one line he wisely points out to us the other. The truth of divine sovereignty is qualified by human responsibility, and the teaching of abounding grace
is seasoned by the remembrance of unflinching justice. Scripture gives us, as it were, the acid and the alkali, the rock and the oil which flows from it, the sword which cuts, and the balm which heals. Accept both.
