“Because of their dependence upon Christ's love they dared much, and because of their love to Christ they did much, and it is the same now. The children of God are ruled in their inmost powers by love--the love of Christ constraineth them; they rejoice that divine love is set upon them, they feel it shed abroad in their hearts by the Holy Ghost, which is given unto them, and then by force of gratitude they love the Saviour with a pure heart, fervently.” — Charles Haddon Spurgeon, Morning and Evening
Gratitude fuels grititude.
Faith produces fervency.
Humility hungers and thirsts.
Meekness moves.
Patience perseveres.
Joy jumps.
Love labors.
Those who depend on Christ dare much and do much. The kingdom within compels them to conquest without. The new birth builds the new earth. The regenerate take responsibility. The redeemed rally.
The holy huddle up in order to break out for the battle.
