• “We say, then, to anyone who is under trial, give Him time to steep the soul in His eternal truth. Go into the open air, look up into the depths of the sky, or out upon the wideness of the sea, or on the strength of the hills that is His also; or, if bound in the body, go forth in the spirit; spirit is not bound. Give Him time and, as surely as dawn follows night, there will break upon the heart a sense of certainty that cannot be shaken.” – Amy Carmichael

Joy and Strength 09/13

Published September 13, 2019 | By womenofchristianity

The peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Phil. iv. 7.

I TAKE Thee for my Peace, O Lord,
My heart to keep and fill;
Thine own great calm, amid earth’s storms,
Shall keep me always still.
And as Thy Kingdom doth increase.
So shall Thine ever-deepening peace.
Annie W. Marston

REMEMBER this, busy and burdened disciple; man or woman tried by uncertain health; immersed in secular duties; forced a life of almost ceaseless publicity. Here is written an assurance, a guarantee, that not at holy times and welcome intervals only, not only the dust of death, but in the dust of life, there is prepared for you the peace of God, le to keep your hearts and thoughts in Christ Jesus. It is found in Him, it is cultivated by intercourse with Him. It is “the secret His presence.” Amidst the circumstances of your life, which are the expression of His will, He can maintain it. He can keep you in it. Nay, it is not passive; it “shall keep” you, alive, and loving, and practical, and ready at His call.
Handley C. G. Moule
