Every time you draw your breath, you suck in mercy.

Thomas Watson

What temporal mercies have you received! every time you draw your breath, you suck in mercy; every bit of bread you eat, the hand of mercy carves it out to you; you never drink but in a golden cup of mercy.


Watson, T. (1829). Discourses upon Christ’s Sermon on the Mount. In Discourses on Important and Interesting Subjects, Being the Select Works of the Rev. Thomas Watson (Vol. 2, p. 219). Edinburgh; Glasgow: Blackie, Fullarton, & Co.; A. Fullarton & Co.

  • Faith is the acknowledgment of the entire absence of all goodness in us, and the recognition of the cross as the substitute for all the want on our part. Faith saves, because it owns the complete salvation of another, and not because it contributes anything to that salvation.
  • For we are not saved by believing in our own salvation, nor by believing anything whatsoever about ourselves. We are saved by what we believe about the Son of God and His righteousness. The gospel believed saves; not the believing in our own faith.
  • The more one separates oneself from the canons of the Christian church, the further one distances oneself from the truth.

  • One hour spent under the cross, while the soul is thus elevated—thus abased—thus joyful—and thus sorrowful—is better than a thousand of earthly delights.
