  • HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW

    Amazing Grace Civilla D. Martin, 1869–1948 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your Father in heaven. And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than sparrows. (Matthew…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Years are short to the happy and healthy; but thirty-eight years of disease must have dragged a very weary length along the life of the poor impotent man. When Jesus, therefore, healed him by a word, while he lay at the pool of Bethesda, he was delightfully sensible of a change. Even so the sinner…

  • BUILDING FOR ETERNITY

    My Utmost For His Highest For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it? Luke 14:28. Our Lord refers not to a cost we have to count, but to a cost which He has counted. The cost was those thirty…

  • UNTO THE HILLS AROUND DO I LIFT UP

    Amazing Grace John D. S. Campbell, 1845–1914 I will lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. (Psalm 121:1, 2) The more we pursue God’s majesty and greatness, the greater becomes our strength to live victoriously. Each day we…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    What a mass of hideous sickness must have thrust itself under the eye of Jesus! Yet we read not that he was disgusted, but patiently waited on every case. What a singular variety of evils must have met at his feet! What sickening ulcers and putrefying sores! Yet he was ready for every new shape…

  • LIBERTY ON THE ABYSS OF THE GOSPEL

    My Utmost For His Highest Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free. Gal. 5:1. A spiritually minded man will never come to you with the demand—‘Believe this and that’; but with the demand that you square your life with the standards of Jesus. We are not asked to believe the…

  • HOW GREAT THOU ART

    Amazing Grace English Words by Stuart K. Hine, 1899–1989 Every day I will praise You and extol Your name for ever and ever. Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; His greatness no one can fathom. (Psalm 145:2, 3) Today’s inspiring hymn of praise and adoration reminds us of God’s unlimited power and…

  • MORNING & EVENING

    Do you want a house for your soul? Do you ask, “What is the purchase?” It is something less than proud human nature will like to give. It is without money and without price. Ah! you would like to pay a respectable rent! You would love to do something to win Christ? Then you cannot…

  • JUDGMENT ON THE ABYSS OF LOVE

    My Utmost For His Highest For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God. 1 Peter 4:17. The Christian worker must never forget that salvation is God’s thought, not man’s; therefore it is an unfathomable abyss. Salvation is the great thought of God, not an experience. Experience is only a…
