  • Morning & Evening

    Our heavenly Father sends us frequent troubles to try our faith. If our faith be worth anything, it will stand the test. Gilt is afraid of fire, but gold is not: the paste gem dreads to be touched by the diamond, but the true jewel fears no test. It is a poor faith which can…

  • MAKE ME A BLESSING

    Amazing Grace Ira B. Wilson, 1880–1950 Through the blessing of the upright a city is exalted, but by the mouth of the wicked it is destroyed. (Proverbs 11:11) Nothing is lost that is done for the Lord,Let it be ever so small;The smile of the Savior approves of the deedAs though it were greatest of…

  • Morning & Evening

    He who is a believer in Jesus finds enough in his Lord to satisfy him now, and to content him for evermore. The believer is not the man whose days are weary for want of comfort, and whose nights are long from absence of heart-cheering thought, for he finds in religion such a spring of…

  • CHANNELS ONLY

    Amazing Grace Mary E. Maxwell, 20th century If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work. (2 Timothy 2:21) A vessel He will make of you, if small or great, ’twill surely do—Great joy and…

  • Morning & Evening

    All the strength supplied to us by our gracious God is meant for service, not for wantonness or boasting. When the prophet Elijah found the cake baked on the coals, and the cruse of water placed at his head, as he lay under the juniper tree, he was no gentleman to be gratified with dainty…

    Amazing Grace A. Catherine Hankey, 1834–1911 The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he who wins souls is wise. (Proverbs 11:30) Soul-winning should be the normal product of our commitment to discipleship and a daily intimate relationship with the Lord. Soul-winning is not salesmanship, in which we try to manipulate or…

  • Morning & Evening

    Oftentimes we look forward with forebodings to the time of old age, forgetful that at eventide it shall be light. To many saints, old age is the choicest season in their lives. A balmier air fans the mariner’s cheek as he nears the shore of immortality, fewer waves ruffle his sea, quiet reigns, deep, still…

  • YE SERVANTS OF GOD, YOUR MASTER PROCLAIM

    Amazing Grace Charles Wesley, 1707–1788 … salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb. (Revelation 7:10) The proclamation of the gospel requires a devoted, zealous spirit. The real purpose of this proclamation is to affect a personal conversion in the hearer, and this experience implies a radical change of…

  • Morning & Evening

    Angels are the unseen attendants of the saints of God; they bear us up in their hands, lest we dash our foot against a stone. Loyalty to their Lord leads them to take a deep interest in the children of his love; they rejoice over the return of the prodigal to his father’s house below,…

  • RESCUE THE PERISHING

    Amazing Grace Fanny J. Crosby, 1820–1915 The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives … (Isaiah 61:1 KJV) One of the most tragic words in our…
