• “My soul was filled and overwhelmed with light, and love, and joy in the Holy Ghost, and seemed just ready to go away from the body. I could scarcely refrain from expressing my joy aloud, in the midst of the service. I had in the mean time, an overwhelming sense of the glory of God, as the Great Eternal All, and of the happiness of having my own will entirely subdued to his will. I knew that the foretaste of glory, which I then had in my soul, came from him, that I certainly should go to him, and should, as it were, drop into the Divine Being, and be swallowed up in God.” – Sarah Edwards, wife of Jonathan Edwards

Joy and Strength 03/13

Published March 13, 2019 | By womenofchristianity

God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John iii. 16.

Let your love be wide as His?
With the whole world round His knees;
Gather into your warm heart
All His creatures, — not a part;
So your love shall be like His.
Katharine Tynan Hinkson.

GOD hath made all that is made, and God loveth all that He hath made; and he that loveth all his fellow-Christians, for God’s sake, he loveth all that is.
Mother Juliana.

Your God is love; love Him and in Him all men, as His children in Christ. Your Lord is a fire; do not let your heart be cold, but burn f with faith and love. Your Lord is light; do not walk in darkness. Your Lord is a God of mercy and bountifulness; be also a source of mercy and bountifulness to your neighbors.
Father John.

“Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and thy neighbor as thyself;” and then go on thy way. The way in which God shall lead thee may he over rocks and deserts, over mountains and oceans, amid things perilous to the sight and the touch; but still go on thy way rejoicing.
Thomas C. Upham.

  • “God is sovereign, that is He is the boss. He is in control. He is the supreme ruler of heaven and earth for all of eternity. He is Lord. We don’t make Him Lord. He is Lord. And joy comes when we acknowledge that He is Lord; we rest in His Lordship. We trust His sovereignty, and we surrender to it. That means that God has the right to give, and God has the right to take away.” – Nancy DeMoss
