• “Many do not recognize the fact as they ought, that Satan has got men fast asleep in sin and that it is his great device to keep them so. He does not care what we do if he can do that. We may sing songs about the sweet by and by, preach sermons and say prayers until doomsday, and he will never concern himself about us, if we don’t wake anybody up. But if we awake the sleeping sinner he will gnash on us with his teeth. This is our work – to wake people up.” – Catherine Booth

April 26 – Daily Strength for Daily Needs

_If we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it_.–ROM. viii. 25.
_One day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day_.–2 PETER iii. 8.

Lord! who Thy thousand years dost wait To work the thousandth part Of Thy vast plan, for us create With zeal a patient heart.
J. H. NEWMAN.
I believe that if we could only see beforehand what it is that our heavenly Father means us to be,–the soul beauty and perfection and glory, the glorious and lovely spiritual body that this soul is to dwell in through all eternity,–if we could have a glimpse of this, we should not grudge all the trouble and pains He is taking with us now, to bring us up to that ideal, which is His thought of us. We know that it is God’s way to work slowly, so we must not be surprised if He takes a great many years of discipline to turn a mortal being into an immortal, glorious angel.

    It is so encouraging to know that patience being a virture, is one of the most beautiful and glorious gifts our Father can bestow on us! Praise Him, for he is worthy to receive Praise! I have learned patience the last 4 days with my Mother being in the hospital and many blessings I have found daily on this site. It is truly annointed!

  • “God, You created me woman. You know what You designed for me to be. I don’t want to be a foolish woman. I want to fulfill Your purpose for me. Speak to me through Your Word. Cleanse me through the washing of Your Word, and work in my life so that when I see You face to face, I am not ashamed, but I hear well done, My good and faithful daughter.” – Kay Arthur
