Quote of the Day


It is a vain idea of ours, to suppose that if our circumstances were altered we should
be more at rest. My brother, if you cannot rest in poverty, neither would you in
riches; if you cannot rest in the midst of persecution, neither would you in the midst
of honour. It is the spirit within that gives the rest, that rest has little to do with
anything without. 

Charles Spurgeon

Quote of the Day


To be poor is  not always pleasant, but worse things than that happen at sea.  Small shoes are apt to pinch, but not if you have a small foot; if we have little means it will be well to have little desires. Poverty is no shame, but being discontented with it is.

 John Ploughman (Charles Spurgeon)
