• “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 05/24

Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk; for I lift up my soul unto Thee.
Ps. cxliii. 8.

I will guide thee with mine eye.
Ps. xxxii. 8.

Teach me to do the thing that pleaseth Thee;
Thou art my God, in Thee I live and move;
Oh, let Thy loving Spirit lead me forth
Into the land of righteousness and love.
J. B. S. MONSELL.

THE minds that are alive to every word from God, give constant opportunity for His divine interference with a suggestion that may alter the courses of their lives ; and, like the ships that turn when the steersman’s hand but touches the helm, God can steer them through the worst dangers by the faintest breath of feeling, or the lightest touch of thought.
Richard H. Hutton.

It is no delusion, no dream of a hot brain, no error of a too confiding soul, that has made the children of God delight to trust in His Providential aid. When God, in deed and in truth, is present and dominant in the soul of a man. He can, and He will give to that soul a real guidance. He will guide it, with the guidance of an eye that seeth and foreseeth, — that knoweth what is best for us and the world, and leadeth us in that way wherein, for our sakes, and the world’s, it is best for us to go.
Henry Septimus Sutton
