Saturday Song: IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious, Thy great Name we praise.
Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting, Thou rulest in might;
Thy justice, like mountains, high soaring above
Thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.
To all, life Thou […]

THE DILEMMA OF OBEDIENCE
from My Utmost for His Highest, January 30…
“And Samuel feared to shew Eli the vision” 1Sam. 3:15).
God never speaks to us in startling ways, but in ways that are easy to misunderstand, and we say, “I wonder if that is God’s voice?” Isaiah said that the Lord spake to him “with a strong hand,” […]

Could in the Godhead be;
I only know the manger Child
Has brought God’s life to me.
I know not how that Calvary’s cross,
A world from sin could free;
I only know its matchless love
Has brought God’s love to me.
I know not how that Joseph’s tomb
Could solve death’s mystery;
I only know a living […]

Love Conquers All
“I heard two soldiers talking
as they came down the hill.
The somber hill of Calvary
bleak and black and still
and one said, ‘The night is late,
these thieves take long to die.’
and one said, ‘I’m sore afraid
and yet I don’t know why.’
I heard two women weeping
as down the hill they came
and one was like a broken rose
and one […]

You’re having a jet lagged, running-to-the-bathroom, catch-up on all the things you left behind week. You’re thinking about those friends you made last Tuesday who are on the […]
