The harvest of the Lord’s field is seldom ripened by sunshine only. It must go through its days of wind, rain and storm.
J. C. Ryle
Oh, dear friend, if you love your children, I charge you, do not let the early impression of a habit of prayer slip by. If you train your children to do anything, train them, at least, to have a habit of prayer.
J. C. Ryle
That preaching is sadly defective which dwells exclusively on the mercies of God and the joys of heaven, yet never sets forth the terrors of the Lord and the miseries of hell.
J. C. Ryle
However corrupt our hearts, and however wicked our past lives, there is hope for us in the Gospel.

J. C. Ryle
There is more to be learned at the foot of the Cross than anywhere else in the world.
J. C. Ryle
Assurance of hope is more than life, it is health, strength, power, vigor, activity, energy, manliness, beauty.
J. C. Ryle

A Christian is a walking sermon. They preach far more than a minister does, for they preach all week long.
J. C. Ryle
A sin...consists in doing, saying, thinking, or imagining anything that is not in perfect conformity with the mind and law of God
J. C. Ryle
Look to the cross, think of the cross, meditate on the cross, and then go and set your affections on the world if you can.
J. C. Ryle
Let us never measure our religion by that of others, and think we are doing enough if we have gone beyond our neighbors.
J. C. Ryle
The true Christian does not need to be reminded that he has a crucified Master. He often thinks of Him.
J. C. Ryle
The eye of God! Think of that. Everywhere, in every house, in every field, in every room, in every company, alone or in a crowd, the eye of God is always upon you.
J. C. Ryle
I want people to fill their minds with passages of Scripture while they are well and strong, that they may have sure help in the day of need. I want them to be diligent in studying their Bibles, and becoming familiar with its contents, in order that the grand old Book may stand by them and talk with them when all earthly friends fail.
J. C. Ryle
