I've been reading Mr. Wesley's "Plain Account of Christian Perfection" (which I got for Christmas) Thanks Mum and Dad!
It's a very interesting and encouraging book which I'm thoroughly enjoying- sadly have nearly finished it.
3 quotes that particularly jumped out at me today:
"In the greatest temptations, a single look to Christ, and the barely pronouncing His name, suffices to overcome the wicked one, so it be done with confidence and calmness of spirit."
"God is so great, that He communicates greatness to the least thing that is done for His service."
"It is good to renew ourselves, from time to time, by closely examining the state of our souls, as if we had never done it before; for nothing tends more to the full assurance of faith, than to keep ourselves by this means in humility, and the exercise of all good works."
Hope you're encouraged as much as I was!
