  • WHAT WONDROUS LOVE IS THIS

    Amazing Grace Anyone who is hung on a tree is under God’s curse. (Deuteronomy 21:23)Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13) Not father or mother has loved you as God has, for it was that you might be happy He gave His only Son.…

  • Morning & Evening

    There is a blessed proportion. The Ruler of Providence bears a pair of scales—in this side he puts his people’s trials, and in that he puts their consolations. When the scale of trial is nearly empty, you will always find the scale of consolation in nearly the same condition; and when the scale of trials…

  • AND CAN IT BE THAT I SHOULD GAIN

    Amazing Grace Charles Wesley, 1707–1788 To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood … (Revelation 1:5) Can any believer contemplate the “amazing love” of Calvary without sharing the awe and wonder of Charles Wesley’s questions in today’s hymn?

  • Morning & Evening

    There are many who know “how to be abased” who have not learned “how to abound.” When they are set upon the top of a pinnacle their heads grow dizzy, and they are ready to fall. The Christian far oftener disgraces his profession in prosperity than in adversity. It is a dangerous thing to be…

    When David made this enquiry he had just fought the Philistines, and gained a signal victory. The Philistines came up in great hosts, but, by the help of God, David had easily put them to flight. Note, however, that when they came a second time, David did not go up to fight them without enquiring…

  • O LOVE THAT WILL NOT LET ME GO

(Jeremiah 31:3) The writing of this thoughtful and artistically constructed text is most remarkable! It was authored by an esteemed Scottish minister who was totally blind and who described the writing as the “fruit of much…

  • Morning & Evening

    When a person is dear, everything connected with him becomes dear for his sake. Thus, so precious is the person of the Lord Jesus in the estimation of all true believers, that everything about him they consider to be inestimable beyond all price. “All thy garments smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia,” said David,…

  • Morning & Evening

    The hour is approaching when the message will come to us, as it comes to all—“Arise, and go forth from the home in which thou hast dwelt, from the city in which thou hast done thy business, from thy family, from thy friends. Arise, and take thy last journey.” And what know we of the…

    Amazing Grace Words and Music by Frederick M. Lehman, 1868–1953 The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save.
