Charles Spurgeon Trials Quotations

Trials teach us what we are; they dig up the soil, and let us see what we are made of.

What an encouraging thought that Jesus - our beloved Husband - can find comfort in our lowly feeble gifts! Can this be, for it seems far too good to be true?

We are too prone to engrave our trials in marble and write our blessings in sand.

When our troubles are many we are often by grace made courageous in serving our God; we feel that we have nothing to live for in this world, and we are driven, by hope of the world to come, to exhibit zeal, self-denial, and industry.

Great faith must have great trials.

There are some promises in the Bible which I have never yet used; but I am well assured that there will come times of trial and trouble when I shall find that poor despised promise, which I thought was never meant for me, will be the only one on which I can float. I know that the time is coming when every believer shall know the worth of every promise in the covenant.

Trials teach us what we are.

Fiery trials make golden Christians.

In heaven we shall see that we had not one trial too many.

When you go through a trial, the sovereignty of God is the pillow upon which you lay your head.
