• “Jesus, who so often says “Whoever loves Me…” “Do you love Me?” is concerned about our LOVE! He is concerned about a special kind of love…He who has loved us so much wants to possess us completely, with everything we are and have. Jesus gave Himself wholly and completely for us. Now His love is yearning for us to surrender ourselves and everything that we are to Him, so that He can really be our “first love” – Basilea Schlink

Joy and Strength 6/22

Be not therefore anxious for the morrow.
Matt. vi. 34 (R. V.)

I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee; be strong and of a good courage.
Josh. i. 5, 6.

I have laid help upon one that is mighty.
Ps. Ixxxix. 19.

Thou hast Thy help upon the mighty laid;
In Him I trust, nor know to want or fear,
But ever onward walk, secure from sin.
For He has conquered every foe within.
Jones Very.

WHY should we, then, burden ourselves with superfluous cares, and fatigue and weary ourselves in the multiplicity of our ways? Let us rest in peace. God Himself inviteth us to cast our cares, our anxieties upon Him.
Madame Guyon.

If we may take one test or sign by which to judge of advance in the spiritual life, it would be this, — whether more and more calmness is being maintained in the midst of all the disturbances and troubles which are wont to come, which may ever be looked for in some form or other, — whether there be peacefulness of mind, and order of thought in the midst of all that once too much distracted and agitated the soul.
T. T. Carter

  • “By confessing sin we gather strength to resist it; thereby the enemy of our souls is foiled, the conscience is kept tender, the heart is sanctified, and the blood of Jesus becomes increasingly precious. Let us constantly flee to the cleansing fountain!” – Mary Winslow
