Image
When God's hand is on thy back, let thy hand be on thy mouth, for though the affliction be sharp it shall be but short.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Carnal reason is an enemy to faith: it is ever crossing and contradicting it. It will never be well with thee, Christian, so long as thou art swayed by carnal reason, and you rely more upon thy five senses, than upon the four Evangelists. As the body lives by breathing, so the soul lives by believing.
Thomas Brooks
Image
An implicit confession is almost as bad as an implicit faith wicked men commonly confess their sins by wholesale, We are all sinners but the true penitent confesses his sins by retail.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Let those be thy choicest companions who have made Christ their chief companion.

Thomas Brooks
Image
Deliver me, O Lord, from that evil man, myself.
Thomas Brooks

Thomas Brooks
Image
An idle life and a holy heart is a contradiction.
Thomas Brooks
Image
God hears no more than the heart speaks and if the heart be dumb, God will certainly be deaf.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Weak Christians are afraid of the shadow of the cross.
Thomas Brooks
Image
If God were not my friend, Satan would not be so much my enemy.
Thomas Brooks
Image
The only ground of God's love is his love.
Thomas Brooks
Image
There is no such way to attain to greater measures of grace, as for a man to live up to that little grace he has.
Thomas Brooks
Image
When afflictions arrest us, we shall murmur and grumble and struggle until we see that it is God that strikes.
Thomas Brooks
Image
It is not he who knows most, nor he who hears most, nor yet he who talks most, but he who exercises grace most, who has most communion with God.
Thomas Brooks
Image
It is the very nature of grace to make a man strive to be most eminent in that particular grace which is most opposed to his bosom sin.
Thomas Brooks
Image
Truth is mighty and will prevail
Thomas Brooks
Image
Though there is nothing more dangerous, yet there is nothing more ordinary, than for weak saints to make their sense and feeling the judge of their condition. We must strive to walk by faith.
