Delay Leads to the Winter of the Soul
John 12:34-36
The people answered him, We have heard out of the law that Christ stays for ever: and how say you, The Son of man must be lifted up?…


How dangerous to defer those momentous reformations which conscience is solemnly preaching to the heart! If they are neglected, the difficulty and indisposition are increasing every month. The mind is receding, degree after degree, from the warm and hopeful zone; till at last it will enter the arctic circle, and become fixed in relentless and eternal ice.

(J. Foster.)
