Matthew 6:25-34: “… For this reason I say to you, do not be anxious for your life as to what you shall eat, or what you shall drink; nor for your body, as to what you shall put on. Is not life more than food, and the body than clothing? Look at the birds of [...]

“And he said, Who art Thou, Lord?” (Acts 9:6) By the miracle of Redemption, Saul of Tarsus was turned in one second from a strong-willed, intense Pharisee into a humble, devoted slave of the Lord Jesus.

I wandered through this vale of tears And saw men crouching in their fears.

Death Preceding Life by Doug Gorman As you whispered, “Forgive them Father, they know not what they do.” This agony, tearing of my heart, this unimaginable truth.

“Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass.” Psalm 37:5 – God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the things we have calculated on without taking Him into account. We get into circumstances which were not chosen by God, and suddenly we find we [...]

“Fret not thyself, it tendeth only to evil doing” – Psalm 37:8 – Fretting means getting out at elbows mentally or spiritually. It is one thing to say “Fret not”, but a very different thing to have such a disposition that you find yourself able not to fret. It sounds so easy to talk about [...]

“That life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh.” 2Cor 4:10 We have to form habits to express what God’s grace has done in us. It is not a quesiton of being saved from hell, but of being saved in order to manifest the life of the Son of God in [...]
