“Peace. It is a providence, and no great change; we are only what we always were, but naked now.”
“Whilst we are in the body, we need a change even in spiritual things; and this change the Lord has graciously provided in the great variety which is to be found in His word.”
“Comfort & peace never come from anything we know about ourselves, but only & always from what we know about Him.”
“Life is so great that we only get a tiny moment to enjoy everything we see. And that moment is right now. And that moment is counting down. And that moment is always, always fleeting. You will never be as young as you are right now.”
“we are always slow in admitting any great change of which we do not see the intermediate steps”
“Not only were we naked, crazed, and starving (and far from our warm little homes); we were without any good books as well.”
