Restore to God His due in tithe and time;
More quotes by George Herbert
A verse may finde him,who a sermon flies
And turns delight into a sacrifice.
The worst speak something good; if all want sense,
God takes a text, and preacheth Pa-ti-ence.
Wit's an unruly engine, wildly striking
Sometimes a friend, sometimes the engineer.
You may also like
Most intellectual people do not believe in God, but they fear him just the same.
God seeks comrades and claims love,
the Devil seeks slaves and claims obedience.
