FEATHERS FOR ARROWS - MY NOTE BOOK –
Charles Haddon Spurgeon

ILLUSTRATIONS OF PSALM 1:1

How BLESSED is the man
Who does not walk in the counsel of the WICKED,
Nor stand in the path of SINNERS,
Nor sit in the seat of SCOFFERS! 

The Beacon on the Harbor

A lighthouse doesn’t argue; it simply shines.
Boats that ignore the light hit the rocks.
Boats that heed the light reach home safely.

Don't Take the Bait Beloved!
