Gleanings among the Sheaves Quotes

“You shall find it greatly mitigates the sorrow of bereavements, if before bereavement you shall have learned to surrender every day all the things which are dearest to you into the keeping of your gracious God.”
― Charles H. Spurgeon, Gleanings Among the Sheaves

“There should be as much difference between the worldling and the Christian, as between hell and heaven, between destruction and eternal life.”
― Charles H. Spurgeon, Gleanings Among the Sheaves

“We must do business in great waters; we must be really on the deck in a storm, if we would see the works of the Lord and His wonders in the deep. We must have stood side by side with King David; we must have gone down into the pit to slay the lion or have lifted up the spear against the eight hundred, if we would know the saving strength of God's right hand. Conflicts bring experience, and experience brings that growth in grace which is not to be attained by any other means.”
― Charles H. Spurgeon, Gleanings Among the Sheaves
