Better to...
Better to have a Christian's days of sorrow,
than a worldling's days of mirth.
Better to have a Christian's sorrows,
than a worldling's joys.
Ah! happier to be chained in a dungeon with a Paul,
than reign in the palace with an Ahab.
Better to be a child of God in poverty,
than a child of Satan in riches.
-Charles Spurgeon-

Spurgeon had a rare gift of making the profound sound incredibly simple.
I can say a hardy AMEN to each of those statements.
