More quotes by Thomas Watson
The pleasure of sin is soon gone, but the sting remains.
Thomas Watson
God will fill the hungry because He Himself has stirred up the hunger. As in the case of prayer, when God prepares the heart to pray, He prepares His ear to hear (Ps. 10:17). So in the case of spiritual hunger, when God prepares the heart to hunger, He will prepare His hand to fill.
Thomas Watson
A spiritual prayer is a humble prayer. Prayer is the asking of an alms, which requires humility... The lower the heart descends, the higher the prayer ascends.
Thomas Watson
How many souls have been blown into hell with the wind of popular applause?
Thomas Watson
What if we have more of the rough file, if we have less rust! Afflictions carry away nothing but the dross of sin.
Thomas Watson
Solve it. Solve it quickly, solve it right or wrong. If you solve it wrong, it will come back and slap you in the face, and then you can solve it right. Lying dead in the water and doing nothing is a comfortable alternative because it is without risk, but it is an absolutely fatal way to manage a business.
Thomas Watson
He that loves the world, how active is he! He will break his peace and sleep for it. He that loves honour, what hazards will he run! He will swim to the throne in blood.... Love heaven, and you cannot miss it love breaks through all opposition-it takes heaven by storm.
Thomas Watson
God sweetens outward pain with inward peace.
Thomas Watson
If joining IBM was commitment, not employment, and the company engaged in something more than business, it had a right to demand of its men unconditional loyalty, Watson believed.
Thomas Watson
The right manner of growth is to grow less in one's own eyes.
Thomas Watson
Prayer as it comes from the saint is weak and languid but when the arrow of a saint's prayer is put into the bow of Christ's intercession it pierces the throne of grace.
Thomas Watson
Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.
Thomas Watson
Whoever brings an affliction, it is God who sends it.
Thomas Watson
It is our work to cast care, and it is God's work to take care.
Thomas Watson
Till sin be bitter, Christ will not be sweet.
Thomas Watson
None so empty of grace as he that thinks he is full.
Thomas Watson
The Ediles among the Romans had their doors always standing open, that all who had petitions might have free access to them. The door of heaven is always open for the prayers of God's people.
Thomas Watson
The torments of hell abide for ever.... If all the earth and sea were sand, and every thousandth year a bird should come, and take away one grain of this sand, it would be a long time ere that vast heap of sand were emptied yet, if after all that time the damned may come out of hell, there were some hope but this word EVER breaks the heart.
Thomas Watson
The more we enjoy of God, the more we are ravished with delight.
Thomas Watson
Sin has the devil for its father, shame for its companion, and death for its wages.
Thomas Watson
