FADE, FADE EACH EARTHLY JOY
Amazing Grace Jane C. Bonar, 1821–1884 Love the Lord, all His saints! The Lord preserves the faithful, but the proud He pays back in full. Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord. (Psalm 31:23, 24) Each of us was created for the purpose of enjoying the fellowship of Almighty God.…

Morning & Evening
Being justified by faith, we have peace with God. Conscience accuses no longer. Judgment now decides for the sinner instead of against him. Memory looks back upon past sins, with deep sorrow for the sin, but yet with no dread of any penalty to come; for Christ has paid the debt of his people to…

JESUS, I AM RESTING, RESTING
Amazing Grace Jean Sophia Pigott, 1845–1882 In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength. (Isaiah 30:15) John Wesley, the flaming evangelist of the 18th century, once stated that Christians must “learn to live with a slack rein.” If that were true then, it is even more necessary in the…

Morning & Evening
Be glad of heart, O believer, but take care that thy gladness has its spring in the Lord. Thou hast much cause for gladness in thy God, for thou canst sing with David, “God, my exceeding joy.” Be glad that the Lord reigneth, that Jehovah is King! Rejoice that he sits upon the throne, and…

MY FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE
Amazing Grace Ray Palmer, 1808–1887 In whom we have boldness and confidence of access through our faith in Him. (Ephesians 3:12 RSV) “My Faith Looks Up to Thee” was written in 1832 by Ray Palmer, a 22-year-old school teacher.
