During devotions today I read a bit about Jonathan Edwards. He wrote 70 Resolutions, and I thought this one spoke to my life particularly at the moment. I am looking forward to the "after afflictions" part! :)
"Resolved, after afflictions to inquire what I am the better for them, what good I have got by them, and what I might have got by them."
I can't quote them all, and they are very good. But another that I like is: "Resolved, never to do any thing, which I should be afraid to do, if I expected it would not be above an hour, before I should hear the last trump."
