many of the trials and troubles we face are meant to teach us deeper and deeper confidence in Him alone.
It is not what we escape, but what we gain, by going to heaven that thrills our souls. It is not our desire to be unclothed, but to be clothed upon, that moves us to seek its residence.
What problems are you enduring that you cannot endure for a little while longer, knowing that the Lord Jesus will reign over all of the world.
In our day we have reduced lies to bad lies and white lies. We justify reasons for not telling the truth and it is so much a part of us that our conscience doesn’t even bother us any more.
