Choice excerpts from Edward Payson!

   ~  ~  ~  ~


(Edward Payson, 1783-1827)

Every Christian is in the exact situation, which God in His infinite wisdom sees best for him!

   ~  ~  ~  ~

The mind which has contemplated eternity--thinks lightly of the things of time!

   ~  ~  ~  ~

If you sincerely search your heart--then you will find pride, like the different layers of an onion, lurking one beneath another to the very center of it!

   ~  ~  ~  ~

Praise Christ for everything. He is the foundation of every good thought, desire, and affection.

   ~  ~  ~  ~

It should be our aim to draw all we can from Him by prayer--and return Him all we can by praise.

   ~  ~  ~  ~

He who falls from a pulpit--seldom stops short of the lowest abyss in Hell.
