"I do not do the good things I want to do,
but I do the bad things I do not want to do."
- Romans 7:18

“You heavens above, rain down righteousness;
let the clouds shower it down.
Let the earth open wide,
let salvation spring up,
let righteousness grow with it;
I, the LORD, have created it.”
- Isaiah 45:8 NIV

“If He gives converting grace,
He will also give comforting grace.
He will send ‘showers of blessings.’
Look up today, O parched plant,
and open your leaves and flowers
for a heavenly watering.”
- Spurgeon
