When you entered into solemn covenant with the Lord, you consecrated your whole being to His service. Your time, then, is not your own, but the Lord’s. If you waste it, or spend it unprofitably, you rob God; for it is one of the talents which He has intrusted to you as His steward. You are not at liberty even to employ it exclusively for yourself; but you must glorify God in the use of it, which you will do by employing it in the way that will be most beneficial to your whole being, and to your fellow-creatures.
Harvey Newcomb, from the book YOUNG LADY’S GUIDE to the Harmonious Development of Christian Character



Blessed are the single-hearted, 
for they shall enjoy much peace. If you refuse to be hurried and pressed, 
if you stay your soul on God, 
nothing can keep you from that clearness of spirit which is life and peace. 
In that stillness you will know what His will is.


-Amy Carmichael

Charles Spurgeon, on 2 Timothy 1:9... "Those whom the Saviour saved on the cross are in due time effectively called by the power of God the Holy Spirit to holiness. They leave their sins, and they endeavor to be like Christ. They choose holiness, not out of any compulsion, but from the influence of a new nature, which leads them to     rejoice in holiness       just as naturally    as before they delighted in sin. God neither chose them nor called them because they were holy, but He called them so that they might be holy, and holiness is the beauty produced by His workmanship in them. The Christlike qualities that we see in a believer are as much the work of God as the Atonement itself.  Thus the fullness of the grace of God is brought out very sweetly... The believer's privilege is a present salvation; the evidence that he is called to it is his holy life."
