Quote by Charles Spurgeon
“Do not despise the Lord’s discipline or be weary of his reproof.” Accept it without getting upset. Do not be angry with God, because he is not angry with you. Do not say he is being hard on you. Let humility rise up and say, “It is well, oh Lord. You are right in disciplining me because I have sinned. You are righteous in striking me because I need your blows to bring me closer to you. If you leave me uncorrected and undisciplined, I, poor wanderer that I am, would wander to the sea of death, and sink into the pit of eternal hell.”

He was converted to Christ at the age of 16 and immediately began preaching. He preached in the streets and in the fields before he was 21. In his first church, he began with 100 members. It grew until he was preaching to 10,000 people in the Surrey Music Hall. His church, the Metropolitan Tabernacle, seated 6,000 people. He withdrew from every movement among English Baptists which tended to criticize the Authorized Version 1611 in any way.
Before his death, he published more than 2,000 sermons and 49 volumes of commentaries, sayings, anecdotes, illustrations, and devotions.
