Quotemeal: Jan. 18th, 1959

Sunday, January 18, 1959

"The lowest station in the Lord's house is better than the highest position among the godless. To bear burdens and open doors for the Lord is more honor than to reign among the wicked. Every man has his choice, and this is ours. God's worst is better than the devil's best."
— Charles H. Spurgeon
