strong cutting soul
There is great danger, yea, many times most danger, in the smallest sins... Greater sins do sooner startle the soul, and awaken and rouse up the soul to repentance, than lesser sins do. Little sins often slide into the soul, and breed, and work secretly and undiscernibly in the soul, till they come to be so strong, as to trample upon the soul and to cut the throat of the soul.
soul repentance
Repentance is the vomit of the soul.
loss soul sin
Sin will usher in the greatest and the saddest losses that can be upon our souls.
soul sorrow sin
That sorrow for sin that keeps the soul from looking towards the mercy seat is a sinful sorrow.
prayer names soul
Prayer crowns God with the honor and glory due to His name, and God crowns prayer with assurance and comfort. The most praying souls are the most assured souls.
believe humble soul
The least sin should humble the soul, but certainly the greatest sin should never discourage the soul, much less should it work the soul to despair. Despairing Judas perished, whereas the murderers of Christ, believing on Him, were saved.

How many threadbare souls are to be found under silken cloaks and gowns!
humble soul looks
An humble soul looks upon Christ's righteousness as his only crown.
men judging soul
There are no souls in the world that are so fearful to judge others as those that do most judge themselves, nor so careful to make a righteous judgment of men or things as those that are most careful to judge themselves.
prayer soul solitude
Christ choosing solitude for private prayer, doth not only hint to us the danger of distraction and deviation of thoughts in prayer, but how necessary it is for us to choose the most convenient places we can for private prayer. Our own fickleness and Satan's restlessness call upon us to get into such places where we may freely pour out our soul into the bosom of God [Mark 1.35].
clouds soul looks
A gracious soul may look through the darkest cloud and see God smiling on him.

We won (last week), ... But we know we have some mistakes to correct. But the more we get reps, the better we'll get with our assignments.
athletes capable number
We try to do that. We have a number of athletes capable (of contributing). We don't want to be one-dimensional.
defense line normal thinking
It was very emotional. (Even) at that moment, he's thinking about the team. We told the defense to keep them down there. They were on the one-foot line and they couldn't get their normal distance. We went for the block.
