"He who grows in grace remembers that is he but dust, and he therefore does not expect his fellow Christians to be anything more. He overlooks ten thousand of their faults, because he knows his God overlooks twenty thousand in his own case. He does not expect perfection in the creature, and, therefore, he is not disappointed when he does not find it." Charles Spurgeon
This quote is perfect for me in learning to love and be gracious. I am loving my two studies on growing as a daughter of the most high, a wife, and a mother!
"Whenever my feelings begin to appear in the least out of order, when I am conscious of the least uneasiness within, or the least irregularity without, I will then subject myself to the strictest examination." Jonathan Edwards
Quoting Edwards and Spurgeon now? I think I may start following this blog more regularly :)
