• “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.”

Joy and Strength 07/08

Published July 8, 2019 | By womenofchristianity

Behold, I will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.
Jer. xxxiii. 6.

Glory, honor, and peace, to every man that worketh good.
Rom. ii. 10.

TRUE peace is when the soul revolves around its centre, Almighty God, craving for nothing but what God continual supplies, its passions subdued to itself, itself lovingly loyal to God, in harmony with its God and His laws. God made the soul for Himself, to have its bliss in His infinite, unchanging, ex-haiistless love. The soul then ‘must needs be restless, until it repose in Him.” Everything, whether it belongs to the keenest intellect, or the lowest senses, is an idol if the soul rests in it, apart from God. The soul’s craving for peace is its natural yearning for its End, its Maker and its God. Since the soul is large enough to contain the infinite God, nothing less than Himself can satisfy or fill it.
E. B. Pusey

With those who have made ready to receive PTim in peaceful trust. He will come and dwell in love and joy; and great is their rest and blessedness.
Abbe Guillore

Verse of the Day

[Love Your Enemies] “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. — Matthew 5:43-45 (NKJV)
