In 40 years I have not spent 15 minutes without thinking of Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon

Prayer must not be our chance work but our daily business, our habit and vocation.
Charles Spurgeon

There are few people who think what a solemn thing it is to be a Christian. I guess there is not a believer in the world who knows what a miracle it is to be kept a believer.
