(Isaiah 43:25) Forgiveness—when God buries our sins and does not mark the grave.— Louis Paul Lehman Many Christians have suffered great emotional, mental, and even physical…

  • Morning & Evening

    This is a crafty word from the lip of the arch-tyrant Pharaoh. If the poor bondaged Israelites must needs go out of Egypt, then he bargains with them that it shall not be very far away; not too far for them to escape the terror of his arms, and the observation of his spies. After…

  • NO ONE EVER CARED FOR ME LIKE JESUS

    Amazing Grace Words and Music by Charles F. Weigle, 1871–1966 … Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night? (Job 35:10) It is not difficult to sing when all is going well. But often God gives a special song to one of his hurting children during the night times of their life.…

  • Morning & Evening

    What must be the apostate professor’s doom when his naked soul appears before God? How will he bear that voice, “Depart, ye cursed; thou hast rejected me, and I reject thee; thou hast played the harlot, and departed from me: I also have banished thee for ever from my presence, and will not have mercy…

  • Morning & Evening

    Our knowledge of Christ is somewhat like climbing one of our Welsh mountains. When you are at the base you see but little: the mountain itself appears to be but one-half as high as it really is.

  • Morning & Evening

    It is fondly imagined by some that it must have involved very special privileges to have been the mother of our Lord, because they supposed that she had the benefit of looking into his very heart in a way in which we cannot hope to do. There may be an appearance of plausibility in the…

  • I’D RATHER HAVE JESUS

    Amazing Grace Mrs. Rhea F. Miller, 1894–1966 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. (Philippians 1:21) The inspiring and challenging words of this hymn, written by Mrs. Rhea Miller, so influenced 23–year-old George Beverly Shea that they determined the direction of his entire life. As he began to compose a…

  • Morning & Evening

    A cake not turned is uncooked on one side; and so Ephraim was, in many respects, untouched by divine grace: though there was some partial obedience, there was very much rebellion left. My soul, I charge thee, see whether this be thy case. Art thou thorough in the things of God? Has grace gone through…

  • IN JESUS

    Amazing Grace James Procter, dates unknown The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” (Psalm 14:1) This song is the testimonial hymn of an avowed atheist who led others in a vain search for the true meaning of life before finding his answer in Jesus. James Proctor grew up in a Christian home…
