Jesus said, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” Mark 4:35
Did He know they would encounter a storm? Of course He did. It must have been quite a storm, because even these seasoned fishermen feared for their lives. Just because you’re in Jesus’ boat doesn’t mean that it’s going to be smooth sailing. This storm did not hit the disciples because they had been disobedient but, rather, because they had been obedient. But He never for a moment left them.
Nothing is too difficult for the living God. Not a breath of wind or a drop of water can defy His sovereign will. If He said, I will take to the other side, He will take you there. No storm can keep you out of His will, away from His plan. On the contrary it will hasten you to the place of your destiny. The bigger the storm, the more the Lord will be glorified when we trust Him.

Tell everything that God has done for you, but do not say anything about what you have done for God, do not promote applause, promote his glory

"A prayerless soul is a Christless soul. Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, the shout of the fighting believer, the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus. It is the breath,the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honor of a Christian. If you are a child of God, you will seek your Father's face and live in your Father's love."
—Charles Spurgeon, Morning by Morning, January 2

Oh, my brothers and sisters in Christ, if sinners will be damned, at least let them leap to hell over our bodies; and if they will perish, let them perish with our arms about their knees, imploring them to stay, and not madly to destroy themselves. If hell must be filled, at least let it be filled in the teeth of our exertions, and let not one go there unwarned and unprayed for.

Thou, O God, hast prepared of thy goodness for the poor.–Psalm 68:10
All God's gifts are prepared gifts laid up in store for needs that are foreseen. God anticipates our needs. Out of the fullness that He has treasured up in Christ Jesus, He provides of His goodness for the poor. You may trust Him for all the necessities that can occur, for He has infallibly foreknown every one of them. He can say of us in all conditions, "I know that you would be in this situation." A man makes a journey across the desert, and when he has gone a day's distance and stops to rest, he discovers that he needs many comforts and necessaries that he has not brought in his luggage. "Ah!" says he, "I did not foresee this: if I had to take this journey again, I would bring things with me that are necessary for my comfort." But God has noticed with His all-seeing eyes all the requirements of His poor, wandering children; and when those needs occur, He has supplies ready. It is goodness that He has prepared for the poor in heart, goodness and goodness only. "My grace is sufficient for thee" (2 Cor. 12:9). "As thy days, so shall thy strength be" (Deut. 33:25). Reader, is your heart heavy this evening? God knew it would be. The comfort that your heart needs is treasured in the sweet assurance of the text. You are poor and needy, but He has thought about you. Do you feel that you never were so consciously vile as you are now? Behold, the crimson fountain is open still, with all its former effectiveness to wash away your sin away. You will never come into such a position that Christ cannot help you. No trouble will ever arrive in your spiritual affairs in which Jesus Christ will not be equal to the emergency, for your history has all been foreknown and provided for in Jesus.
Charles Spurgeon, 1865

"If you sincerely seek mercy of God through Jesus Christ, you shall have it. Whatever may have been your previous condition of life, if now penitently you seek the Lord's face, through the appointed Mediator, you will find Him. If the Holy Spirit has taught you to pray, hasten to the cross and rest your guilty soul on Jesus."
- Charles Spurgeon, The Conditions of Power in Prayer

It is better to be sneered at as a Puritan than to be despised as a hypocrite. Walking before the Lord carefully may involve much self-denial, but it has pleasures of its own that are more than sufficient compensation. Charles Spurgeon

Beware of light thoughts of sin. It is sadly true, that even a Christian may grow by degrees so callous, that the sin which once startled him does not alarm him in the least. By degrees men get familiar with sin. Take heed lest you fall by little and little. Sin, a little thing? Is it not a poison? Who knows its deadliness? Do not the little foxes spoil the grapes? Do not little strokes fell lofty oaks? Will not continual droppings wear away stones? Sin, a little thing? It girded the Redeemer's head with thorns, and pierced His heart! It made Him suffer anguish, bitterness, and woe. Look upon all sin as that which crucified the Saviour, and you will see it to be "exceeding sinful."
C H SPURGEON
Keep your servant also from willful sins; may they not rule over me. Psalm 19:13
