The Wisdom of God

The wisdom of God has ordained a way for the love of God to deliver us from the wrath of God without compromising the justice of God.

The Comforter

I ought to study the Comforter more, - His Godhead, His love, His Almightiness. I have found by experience that nothing sanctifies me so much as meditating on the Comforter.... I ought never to forget that my body is dwelt in by the third Person of the Godhead. The very thought of this should make me tremble to sin.

Prayer

Do not be discouraged, dearly beloved, because God bears long with you - because He does not seem to answer your prayers.When the merchant sends his ships to distant shores, he does not expect them to come back richly laden in a single day. He has great patience.... Perhaps your prayers will come back like the ships of the merchant - all the more heavily laden with blessings because of the delay.
