I have seen, at a railway station, gentlemen with first-class tickets walking up and down the platform unable to find a first-class carriage; and if the train was going on they have jumped in the third class so as to get to their journey’s end. If there is any man who does not think that he ought to…

I have heard of a certain king who had a jester or “fool” to make fun for him, as kings used to have. But this “fool” was no fool; he had much sense, and he had thought wisely about eternal matters. One day, when he had greatly pleased the king, his majesty gave him a stick, and said to him, “Tom, there…

This precious text is one which, years ago, when we built the Orphanage, I caused to be cut on one of the pillars of the entrance.

Ishmael, the son of Hagar, had his water in a bottle, and he might have laughed at Isaac because Isaac had no bottle. Here was the difference between them: Isaac lived by the well. Now, some of us have little enough in this world; we have no bottle of water, and no stock in hand. But then we live by…

The Lord’s first word to Abraham is that he should leave his father and his kinsfolk, and the idolatrous house in which he lived, and go to a land that God should show to him. Away he must go. Faith must be his guide, providence his provision, and the living God his only keeper. The separate life of…

There is a father, and he thinks that to go to his work—such common work as his—cannot be especially pleasing in God’s sight. He means to serve God, and so he stops at home.

Guilt is very suspicious. When you have done wrong to a man, you cannot believe him. Nothing renders you so full of doubt toward another as your own consciousness of having acted unjustly toward him.

Nobody, I suppose, teaches the young mother how to manage her first child, and yet somehow or other it is done, because she loves it.

What is true in nature is also true in providence. A man is idle and neglects his business. He sleeps in the morning when he ought to be at work. He is dilatory and careless about his affairs.
