I Am A Great Sinner And God

My Grand Point In Preaching Is To Break The Hard Heart, And To Heal The Broken One.

So Dress And Conduct Yourself So That People Who Have Been In Your Company Will Not Recall What You Had On.

If We Seem To Get No Good By Attempting To Draw Near To Him, We May Be Sure We Will Get None By Keeping Away From Him.

May We Sit At The Foot Of The Cross; And There Learn What Sin Has Done, What Justice Has Done, What Love Has Done.

I Compare The Troubles Which We Have To Undergo In The Course Of The Year To A Great Bundle Of Sticks, Far Too Large For Us To Lift. But God Does Not Require Us To Carry The Whole At Once. He Mercifully Unties The Bundle, And Gives Us First One Stick, Which We Are To Carry Today, And Then Another, Which We Are To Carry Tomorrow, And So On. This We Might Easily Manage, If We Would Only Take The Burden Appointed For Us Each Day; But We Choose To Increase Our Troubles By Carrying Yesterday's Stick Over Again Today, And Adding Tomorrow's Burden To Our Load, Before We Are Required To Bear It.
