“In all places and at all times, we can have that familiar friendship, we can have Him with us; and there may be through the day a constant interchange of private words, of little offerings, too small to have any name attached to them—by which the bonds of that familiar friendship grow closer and more real, until it comes to that special personal intimacy, which we call sanctity.” – Janet Erskine Stuart, 1857-1914
O, that I could write with the language of angels..."Yes! O, yes! Hear this, for it is so true."
So true, so convicting. But He does not require me to speak as an angel, He calls me to give my all for His sake, right here, right now, where I am. Even though where I am, maybe especially because where I am, is grievously difficult. How light all our afflictions will be seen to be though, one day, and how heartbreaking now to think that in that day, I will weep for all I could have done but didn't. Forbid it, dearest Lord.
Let us pray for one another, for strength, endurance, yes, these things, but even more for the ceaseless flow of faith and hope and love. Blessed be the man who exhorts the children of God as this man has done.
Thank you, Michelle, for your faithful ministry. I thank God for your work, and pray His blessing upon you. He is faithful.
“False humility and morbid introspection are, in fact, the opposite of brokenness, as they reveal a preoccupation with self, rather than Christ.” – Nancy Leigh DeMoss
