“Spend your time in nothing which you know must be repented of; in nothing on which you might not pray for the blessing of God; in nothing which you could not review with a quiet conscience on your dying bed; in nothing which you might not safely and properly be found doing if death should surprise you in the act.” IfsKnowsShouldMightFoundDyingPrayingBlessingBedQuietConscienceSurpriseReviews Author:Richard Baxter
“Indeed, the greatest blessing that can follow the death of those we love is reconciliation. Without it there is no peace. But with it come quiet thoughts and quickened memories. And what else shall a man do except become reconciled? What purpose does he serve by fighting what he cannot touch or by brooding upon what he cannot change?” MenDoePurposeFightingPeaceMemoriesLove IsBlessingQuietReconciliationThose We LoveBroodingGreatest Blessings Author:Richard L.

“How sweet and soothing is this hour of calm! I thank thee, night! for thou has chased away these horrid bodements which, amidst the throng, I could not dissipate; and with the blessing of thy benign and quiet influence now will I to my couch, although to rest is almost wronging such a night as this.” NightHoursInfluenceSweetBlessingQuietCalmTheeCouchesSoothingBenign Author:Lord Byron
“"Sabbath is not primarily about us or how it benefits us; it is about God, and how God forms us. It is not, in the first place, about what we do or don't do; it is about God - completing and resting and blessing and sanctifying. These are all things that we don't know much about......But it does mean stopping and being quiet long enough to see - open-mouthed - with wonder - resurrection wonder.....we cultivate the "fear of the Lord". Our souls are formed by what we cannot work up or take charge of. We respond and enter into what the resurrection of Jesus continues to do."” KnowsFirstsMeanLongDoeSoulEnoughFormJesusWonderLordBlessingQuietBenefitsAll ThingsResurrectionStoppingSabbathCompletingJesus ResurrectionBeing Quiet Book:Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places: A Conversation in Spiritual Theology Source: Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places: A Conversation in Spiritual Theology
