• “I henceforth take Jesus Christ to be mine. I promise to receive Him as a husband to me. And I give myself to Him, unworthy though I am, to be His spouse. I ask of Him, in this marriage of spirit with spirit, that I may be of the same mind with Him — meek, pure, nothing in myself, and united in God’s will. And, pledged as I am to be His, I accept as part of my marriage portion, the temptations and sorrows, the crosses and the contempt which fell to Him. — Jeanne M.B. de la Mothe Guyon, Sealed with her ring.”

To Calv’ry let our eyes be turned by Amy Carmichael

Published July 4, 2018 | By womenofchristianity
  • To Calv’ry let our eyes be turned,With Calv’ry love our hearts be burned;
    For there in Calv’ry’s awful hour,
    Love conquered sin and Satan’s pow’r.
  • Lord, turn our gaze upon Thy Cross,
    Counting all else not gain but loss;
    For this we pray, this is our plea—
    Lord, keep our eyes on Calvary.

Verse of the Day

[The Humbled and Exalted Christ] Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. — Philippians 2:5-8 (NKJV)
