  • Morning & Evening

    The fatherhood of God is common to all his children. Ah! Little-faith, you have often said, “Oh that I had the courage of Great-heart, that I could wield his sword and be as valiant as he! But, alas, I stumble at every straw, and a shadow makes me afraid.” List thee, Little-faith. Great-heart is God’s…

  • ALL OF GRACE

    C. H. Spurgeon Chapter 15 Repentance Must Go with Forgiveness IT IS CLEAR from the text which we quoted earlier that repentance is bound up with the forgiveness of sins. In Acts 5:31 we read that Jesus is exalted to give repentance and forgiveness of sins. These two blessings come from that sacred hand which…

  • TRUST AND OBEY

    Amazing Grace John H. Sammis, 1846–1919 But Samuel replied, “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice, and to heed is better than the fat of rams.” (1 Samuel 15:22) Life can often be a restless, disrupted existence…

  • Morning & Evening

    Why does God allow so many of his children to be poor? He could make them all rich if he pleased; he could lay bags of gold at their doors; he could send them a large annual income; or he could scatter round their houses abundance of provisions, as once he made the quails lie…

  • ALL OF GRACE

    C. H. Spurgeon Chapter 14 “My Redeemer Liveth” I HAVE SPOKEN CONTINUALLY to you concerning Christ crucified, who is the great hope of the guilty, but we will be wise to remember that our Lord has risen from the dead and lives eternally. You are not asked to trust in a dead Jesus but in…

  • LEANING ON THE EVERLASTING ARMS

    Amazing Grace Elisha A. Hoffman, 1839–1929 The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. (Deuteronomy 33:27) When close friends or family members turn to us for comfort in their grief following the loss of a loved one, often we find it difficult to express just the right words of consolation. One…

  • Morning & Evening

    Yes, O Lord, with thee, but not to thee. All my natural alienation from thee, thy grace has effectually removed; and now, in fellowship with thyself, I walk through this sinful world as a pilgrim in a foreign country. Thou art a stranger in thine own world. Man forgets thee, dishonours thee, sets up new…

  • ALL OF GRACE

    C. H. Spurgeon Chapter 10 Regeneration and the Holy Spirit YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN. This word of our Lord Jesus has appeared to flame in the way of many, like the drawn sword of the cherub at the gate of paradise. They have despaired because this change is beyond their utmost effort. The new…

  • Morning & Evening

    Christ has grace without measure in himself, but he hath not retained it for himself. As the reservoir empties itself into the pipes, so hath Christ emptied out his grace for his people. “Of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.” He seems only to have in order to dispense to us.…

  • STANDING ON THE PROMISES

    Amazing Grace Words and Music by R. Kelso Carter, 1849–1928 For all the promises of God in Him are yea, and in Him Amen, unto the glory of God by us. (2 Corinthians 1:20 KJV) All of us have times in life when a crisis or problem seems larger than we can possibly bear, and…
