<p>&quot;The human heart is most deceitful and desperately <br />
          wicked. Who really knows how bad it is?&quot; Jer. 17:9<br />
          <br />
          It is our mercy, if we only feel and groan under <br />
          corruption <strong>inwardly</strong>, without it breaking forth <br />
          <strong>outwardly</strong>—to wound our own souls, grieve the <br />
          people of God, and gladden our enemies. <br />
          <br />
          <strong>Let God but take the cover off the boiling <br />
            cauldron of our corrupt nature</strong>, and the filthy <br />
          scum would surface in the sight of all men!<br />
          <br />
          &quot;Hold me up, and I shall be safe!&quot; Psalm 119:117
          <br />
          
          <strong><br />
  </strong>When the cold winds are whistling over your grave<br />
          <br />
          &quot;So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on <br />
          what is unseen. For what is seen is <strong>temporary</strong>, <br />
          but what is unseen is <strong>eternal</strong>.&quot; 2 Cor. 4:18<br />
          <br />
          How really empty and worthless are all human <br />
          <strong>cares </strong>and <strong>anxieties</strong>, as well as all human <strong>hopes<br />
            </strong>and <strong>pleasures</strong>—when viewed in the light of a <br />
          vast and endless eternity!<br />
          <br />
          In twenty years, today's price of oil will probably <br />
          mean little to you. But it will matter much whether <br />
          your soul is in heaven or hell.<br />
          <br />
          <strong>When the cold winds are whistling over your grave</strong>, <br />
          or the warm sun resting on it—<strong>what will it matter </strong><br />
          whether sheep sold badly or well at the market?<br />
          <br />
          <strong>Could we realize eternal things more</strong>, we would <br />
          be less anxious about temporal things. It is only <br />
          our <strong>unbelief </strong>and <strong>carnality </strong>which fetter us down to <br />
          <strong>the poor things of time and sense</strong>.<br />
          <br />
          &quot;This world is fading away, along with everything<br />
          it craves. But if you do the will of God, you will<br />
          live forever.&quot; 1 John 2:17
