grace shall conquer

“… all God cares for, works for, plots for it is to do His people no more hurts than this—to advance His grace in them and by them, all His hewings and hammerings of you, nay, His knocking you to pieces and new melting and casting of you, it is that you may be vessels of His glorious grace, that you may be able to live in the air of God’s grace; to suck in and breathe out grace, and let all the power of hell seek to blur it, yet grace shall conquer.” Thomas Shepherd
