John Wesley once said, “Now, if I knew I should die tomorrow morning, I would do exactly what I have planned to do. I should take the class meeting at such an hour, preach at such an hour, and be up at such a time in the morning to pray.” That good man’s life was spent in prospect of sudden departure,…

You may have seen a deep mountain lake that has been filled to the brim by innumerable streamlets from all the hillsides round about. Here comes a torrent gushing down, and there trickles from the moss that has overgrown the rock a little drip, drip, drip, which falls perpetually. Great and small tributaries…

It is no new thing for men to attempt to escape the army by pretending to be in bad health, but we must have none of this cowardly malingering in Christ’s army. We must be ready for anything and everything. We must compel ourselves to duty when it goes against the grain. When it is a clear duty, obedience…

If you go to the top of some mountains such as Snowdon or the Rigi, you will find it all solid and firm enough.

Charles Borromeo, the famous bishop of Milan, ordered a painter who was about to draw a skeleton with a scythe over a sepulcher to substitute for it the golden key of Paradise.

When a farmer comes to thrash out his wheat and get it ready for the market, there are two things that he desires—that there may be plenty of it of the right sort, and that when he takes it to market he may be able to carry a clean sample there.

I have seen in the army a number of veterans marching in front, an ornament and an honor to the whole company.
