Providence has ordered that condition for you which is really best for your eternal good. If you had more of the world than you have, your heads and hearts might not be able to manage it to your advantage  (John Flavel Quotes) When the world smiles upon us, and we have got a warm nest, how do we prophesy of rest and peace in those acquisitions, thinking with good Baruch, great things for ourselves, but Providence by a particular or general calamity overturns our plans (Jer. 45:4,5), and all this to turn our hearts from the creature to God  (John Flavel Quotes) Christ’s resurrection is the ground-work of our hope. And the new birth is our title or evidence of our interest in it  (John Flavel Quotes) Affliction is a pill, which, being wrapt up in patience and quiet submission, may be easily swallowed; but discontent chews the pill, and so embitters the soul.  (John Flavel Quotes) He feels all our sorrows, needs, and burdens as his own. That is why it is said that the sufferings of believers are called the sufferings of Christ.  (John Flavel Quotes) No doctrine is more excellent, or necessary to be preached and studied, than Jesus Christ, and him crucified.  (John Flavel Quotes) To keep the heart then, is carefully to preserve it from sin which disorders it; and maintain that spiritual and gracious frame, which fits it for a life of communion with God.  (John Flavel Quotes) The Lord’s supper is memorative, and so it has the nature and use of a pledge or token of love, left by a dying to a dear surviving friend.  (John Flavel Quotes) The heart of a Christian, like the moon, commonly suffers an eclipse when it is at the full, and that by the interposition of the earth.  (John Flavel Quotes) Providence so orders the case, that faith and prayer come between our wants and supplies, and the goodness of God may be the more magnified in our eyes thereby.  (John Flavel Quotes) As God did not at first choose you because you were high, He will not now forsake you because you are low.  (John Flavel Quotes)
