A weak faith can lay hold on a strong Christ.

Affliction may be lasting, but it is not everlasting. Affliction was a sting, but withal a wing: sorrow shall soon fly away.
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.

God will not be behind-hand in love to us: for our drop, we shall receive an ocean.
Thomas Watson
Image
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.

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
Image
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
Image
If a wicked man seems to have peace at death, it is not from the knowledge of his happiness, but from the ignorance of his danger.
Thomas Watson
Image
Prayer delights God's ear it melts His heart and opens His hand. God cannot deny a praying soul.
Thomas Watson
Image
Christ went more willingly to the cross than we do to the throne of grace.
Thomas Watson

The more we enjoy of God, the more we are ravished with delight.
Thomas Watson
Image
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
Image
Sin has the devil for its father, shame for its companion, and death for its wages.
Thomas Watson
Image
God sweetens outward pain with inward peace.
