The message and being thankful to God for His love.

...our rejoicing is the testimony of your conscience, that in simplicity and godly sincerity, not with fleshly wisdom, but by the grace of God, we have had our conversation in the world, and more abundantly towards you....

-2 Corinthians 1:12

I thank God not only for the gift of the Gospel, the gift of unearned righteousness and the abundance of his Grace, but the mind and heart and means to spread the message, to believe on Christ, that he died and came back three days later.  

Further, the message of God's love, and the imputing that we should love God first.

Spurgeon on the Love of God.

All the year round, every hour of every day, God is richly blessing us; both when we sleep and when we wake his mercy waits upon us. The sun may leave us a legacy of darkness, but our God never ceases to shine upon his children with beams of love. Like a river, his lovingkindness is always flowing, with a fulness inexhaustible as his own nature. Like the atmosphere which constantly surrounds the earth, and is always ready to support the life of man, the benevolence of God surrounds all his creatures; in it, as in their element, they live, and move, and have their being. Yet as the sun on summer days gladdens us with beams more warm and bright than at other times, and as rivers are at certain seasons swollen by the rain, and as the atmosphere itself is sometimes fraught with more fresh, more bracing, or more balmy influences than heretofore, so is it with the mercy of God; it hath its golden hours; its days of overflow, when the Lord magnifieth his grace before the sons of men.

Spurgeon on the safety of the believer.

Observe the complete safety of the Lord's wheat; even the least grain has a promise of preservation. God himself sifts, and therefore it is stern and terrible work; he sifts them in all places, "among all nations"; he sifts them in the most effectual manner, "like as corn is sifted in a sieve"; and yet for all this, not the smallest, lightest, or most shrivelled grain, is permitted to fall to the ground. Every individual believer is precious in the sight of the Lord, a shepherd would not lose one sheep, nor a jeweller one diamond, nor a mother one child, nor a man one limb of his body, nor will the Lord lose one of his redeemed people. However little we may be, if we are the Lord's, we may rejoice that we are preserved in Christ Jesus.

-Charles Spurgeon 

There is a verse that says basically, "God has so clothed the leaves of the field; how much better then he deals with his believer..."

spurgeon on the need for prayer.

Do not despair, dear heart, but come to the LORD with all thy jagged wounds, black bruises, and running sores. He alone can heal, and He delights to do it. It is our LORD's office to bind up the brokenhearted, and He is gloriously at home at it. Let us not linger but at once return unto the LORD from whom we have gone astray. Let us show Him our gaping wounds and beseech him to know His own work and complete it. Will a surgeon make an incision and then leave his patient to bleed to death? Will the LORD pull down our old house and then refuse to build us a better one? Dost Thou ever wantonly increase the misery of poor anxious souls? That be far from Thee, O LORD.

-Charles Spurgeon 

Thorny Troubles and the Starry Crown, from Spurgeon.

Thy head may be crowned with thorny troubles now, but it shall wear a starry crown ere long; thy hand may be filled with cares--it shall sweep the strings of the harp of heaven soon. Thy garments may be soiled with dust now; they shall be white by-and-by. Wait a little longer. Ah! how despicable our troubles and trials will seem when we look back upon them! Looking at them here in the prospect, they seem immense; but when we get to heaven we shall then.

-Charles Spurgeon

as Paul also says, "I reckon the [troubles of today], do not compare to the glory to come..."

He "reckons": its a thought process, a reflection or contemplation of how the evils of today are compared to our future in Christ and the Father.

Spend some time, brother and sister, put aside a moment for the one that loves beyond all understanding.

On salvation in conversation with Pastor Milton.

I read in 1 Timothy that even fornicators and murderers could get salvation.

Indeed, salvation is bigger than any sin, and God's love is bigger than any sin, stronger and more capable.  Think of people saying of the "leaven and the lump", that a little harm goes a long way in a group, while conversely, a little good can cover a multitude of sins.

There was an evangelist in Texas, one told of as a heretic, a millionaire preacher who jets around the globe collecting money.  He did something we can point to as a good, in the form of ministering to a death row inmate, ministering to him of Christ's love and forgiveness.

Christ's goodness and God's love is so much stronger, so much more important than anything we could do, good or bad in the long run, and we'd be apt to remember that.  In conversation my with my first home pastor, we talked, and I was explaining that a friend said I was supposedly, "better than him" because I had gotten saved, but I told him that I was still a man, still broken and sin riddled, but what separated me from him was my hope in glory.

I had realized God's love and Christ's goodness, and that gave me hope.  I had accepted the love of Christ, where some say they had "received it".  But my, I was always "receiving" Christ, but I was sin-blind until my thirty-fifth year on earth before I could grab hold of the message and feel that hope, real Christian joy and peace.
