Faith, If It Be A Living Faith,

Did You Never Run For Shelter In A Storm, And Find Fruit Which You Expected Not? Did You Never Go To God For Safeguard, Driven By Outward Storms, And There Find Unexpected Fruit?

By Faith Ponder On This, That Though Thou Art No Way Able In Or By Thyself To Get The Conquest Over Thy Distemper, Though Thou Art Even Weary Of Contending, And Art Utterly Ready To Faint, Yet That There Is Enough In Jesus Christ To Yield Thee Relief.

If I Have Observed Anything By Experience, It Is This: A Man May Take The Measure Of His Growth And Decay In Grace According To His Thoughts And Meditations Upon The Person Of Christ, And The Glory Of Christ's Kingdom, And Of His Love.

Leanness Of Body And Soul May Go Together.

Only What God Has Commanded In His Word Should Be Regarded As Binding; In All Else There May Be Liberty Of Actions.
