Calvin on the Christian Life

I have not traditionally been a fan of Calvin, but I found his small work Golden Handbook of the True Christian Life to be a pleasant and spiritually provocative read. So I leave you with two quotes and a recommendation to pick up this little text:

"For all whom the Lord has chosen and received into the society of his saints ought to prepare themselves for a life that is hard, laborious, and full of countless griefs."

"Every man, however important he may be, should realize that he is a debtor to his neighbor and that love demands that he give to the limit of his ability."
