  • “I entreat you, give no place to despondency. This is a dangerous temptation–a refined, not a gross temptation of the adversary. Melancholy contracts and withers the heart, and renders it unfit to receive the impressions of grace.

God’s designs regarding you, and His methods of bringing about these designs, are infinitely wise.” – Madame Guyon
