Samuel Rutherford Winter Quotations

After winter comes the summer. After night comes the dawn. After every storm, there comes clear, open slies.

I find it most true that the greatest temptation outside of hell is to live without temptations; if water stands, it rots; faith is the better for the sharp winter storm in its face and grace withers without adversity. The devil is but God's master fencer to teach us to handle our weapons.

Humility is a strange flower; it grows best in winter weather, and under storms of affliction.

Grace grows best in winter.

After winter comes the summer. After night comes the dawn. And after every storm, there comes clear, open skies.
