A Puritan at Heart

Daily quote from the puritans

The Nature of faith

It is the nature of faith to believe God upon His bare word…It will not be, saith sense; it cannot be, saith reason; it both can and will be, saith faith, for I have a promise for it. [David Dickson]

The Lord takes care of His own

I had also this consideration, that I if I should now venture all for God, I engaged God to take care of my concernments; but if I forsook Him and His ways for fear of any trouble that should come to me or  mine, then I should not only falsify my profession but should count also that my concernments were not so sure…This was a smarting consideration, and was as spurs unto my flesh. {John Bunyan]
