Puritan Wisdom

On Psalm 8:2 -- quoted in Spurgeon's Treasury of David --

"God will be honoured. Even thou, silly worm, shalt honour him, when it shall appear what God hath done for thee, what lusts he hath mortified, and what graces he hath granted thee. The Lord can yet do greater things for thee if thou wilt trust him. He can carry thee upon eagle’s wings, enable thee to bear and suffer strong affliction for him, to persevere to the end, to live by faith, to finish thy course with joy."

– Daniel Rogers
