John Ploughman’s Talk
Recently I found a book written by Charles Spurgeon, titled, John Ploughman’s Talk. It was filled with tid bits of wisdom that I found quite filling. I will be able to use these choice morsels throughout my life-time of ministry, family life, friendships, and business. Here are few examples of the wisdom insights found on its pages (I will add one each day):
a. On Patience: The best doctors are Dr. Diet, Dr. Quiet, and Dr. Merryman. Hard work brings health and an ounce of health is worth a sack of diamonds. It is not how much we have, but how much we enjoy, that makes happiness. The best remedy for affliction is submitting to Providence. What can’t be cured must be endured. Losses and crosses are heavy to bear, but when our hearts are right with God it is wonderful how easy the yoke becomes.
