“Let us watch jealously over our hearts, and beware of giving way to the beginnings of sin.

Happy is he who feareth always, and walks humbly with his God.

The strongest Christian is the one who feels his weakness most, and cries most frequently, ‘Hold Thou me up, and I shall be safe.’ (Psalm 119:117; Prov. 28:14)”

–J.C. Ryle, Expository Thoughts on John, Volume 3 (Carlisle, PA: Banner of Truth, 1869/2012), 3: 24.
