There is a burden of care in getting riches; fear in keeping them; temptation in using them; guilt in abusing them; sorrow in losing them; and a burden of account at last to be given concerning them.
Matthew Henry (Minister, 1843 – 1916)
The Bible is a letter God has sent to us; prayer is a letter we send to him.
Matthew Henry (Minister, 1843 – 1916)
Eve was not taken out of Adam’s head to top him, neither out of his feet to be trampled on by him, but out of his side to be equal with him, under his arm to be protected by him, and near his heart to be loved by him.
Matthew Henry (Minister, 1843 – 1916)
Trying to do the Lord’s work in your own strength is the most confusing, exhausting, and tedious of all work. But when you are filled with the Holy Spirit, then the ministry of Jesus just flows out of you.

Corrie Ten Boom (Holocaust Survivor, 1892 – 1983)
Jesus did not promise to change the circumstances around us. He promised great peace and pure joy to those who would learn to believe that God actually controls all things.
Corrie Ten Boom (Holocaust Survivor, 1892 – 1983)
Faith sees the invisible, believes the unbelievable, and receives the impossible.
Corrie Ten Boom (Holocaust Survivor, 1892 – 1983)
Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It is a power that breaks the chains of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness.
