Be Careful in the Peaceful Times by J.C. Ryle
Let us pray much for humility, and especially for humility in our days of peace and success.
When everything around us seems to prosper, and all our plans work well, – when family trials and sicknesses are kept from us, and the course of our worldly affairs runs smooth, – when our daily crosses are light, and all within and without are like a morning without clouds, – then, then is the time when our souls are in danger!”
~ J.C. Ryle
