Truths From Matthew Henry

• The heart that truly believes, shall in due time greatly rejoice: we are to expect joy and peace in believing. God shall have the praise of it: thus must we express our gratitude
• Those who make God their hope shall flourish like a tree aways green, whose leaf does not wither. They shall be fixed in peace and satisfaction of mind; they shall not be anxious in a year of drought. Those who make God their hope have enough in Him to make up the want of all creature-comforts
• Days of trouble must be days of prayer; when God seems to have withdrawn from us, we must seek Him till we find Him. Those that are under trouble of mind must pray it away. Doubts and fears proceed from the want and weakness of faith
• He that does not love the image of God in His people has no saving knowledge of God
• None of our words or thoughts can do justice to the free, astonishing love of a holy God towards sinners, who could not profit or harm Him, whom He might justly crush in a moment, and whose deserving of His vengeance was shown in the method by which they were saved
• Happy those who shall have holy boldness before the Judge, knowing He is their Friend and Advocate! Happy those who have holy boldness in the prospect of that day, who look and wait for it, and for the Judge's appearance!
• Should we search the whole universe for love in its most glorious displays? It is to be found in the person and the cross of Christ
• The love of God in Christ, in the hearts of Christians from the Spirit of adoption is the great proof of conversion
