We should ask God to increase our hope when it is small, awaken it when it is dormant, confirm it when it is wavering, strengthen it when it is weak, and raise it up when it is overthrown.
A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God's truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.
There is no work, however vile or sordid, that does not glisten before God.
However many blessings we expect from God, His infinite liberality will always exceed all our wishes and our thoughts.
God tolerates even our stammering, and pardons our ignorance whenever something inadvertently escapes us - as, indeed, without this mercy there would be no freedom to pray.
No man is excluded from calling upon God, the gate of salvation is set open unto all men: neither is there any other thing which keepeth us back from entering in, save only our own unbelief.
