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

  • “My soul remained in a kind of heavenly elysium. So far as I am capable of making a comparison, I think that what I felt each minute, during the continuance of the whole time, was worth more than all the outward comfort and pleasure, which I had enjoyed in my whole life put together. It was a pure delight, which fed and satisfied the soul. It was peasure, without the least sting, or any interruption. It was a sweetness, which my soul was lost in. It seemed to be all that my feeble frame could sustain, of that fulness of joy, which is felt by those, who behold the face of Christ, and share his love in the heavenly world.” – Sarah Edwards, wife of Jonathan Edwards
