Matthew Henry May Quotations

It is good for us to keep some account of our prayers, that we may not unsay them in our practice.

Earth is embittered to us, that heaven may be endeared.

I shall be supplied with whatever I need; and, if I have not everything I desire, I may conclude it is either not fit for me, or I shall have it in due time.

He that is in haste may contract much guilt in a little time. What we say or do unadvisedly when we are hot, we must unsay or undo again when we are cool, or do worse.

May Christ be our joy, our confidence, our all. May we daily be made more like to Him, and more devoted to His service.

Those that forget to attend God with their praises may perhaps be compelled to attend him with their prayers.

God has wisely kept us in the dark concerning future events and reserved for himself the knowledge of them, that he may train us up in a dependence upon himself and a continued readiness for every event.
