THE UNCRITICAL TEMPER
My Utmost For His Highest Judge not, that ye be not judged. Matthew 7:1. Jesus says regarding judging—Don’t. The average Christian is the most penetratingly critical individual. Criticism is a part of the ordinary faculty of man; but in the spiritual domain nothing is accomplished by criticism. The effect of criticism is a dividing up…

JESUS IS ALL THE WORLD TO ME
Words and Music by Will L. Thompson, 1847–1909 I consider everything a loss compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things.

My Utmost For His Highest In the Matter of Drudgery. And beside this, … add. 2 Peter 1:5.

No man is born either naturally or supernaturally with character;…

IN TIMES LIKE THESE
Words and Music by Ruth Caye Jones, 1902–1972 Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life.” (John 6:68) Wars, earthquakes, famines, violence, drugs, child abuse, humanism, the occult, New Age … When world events and ideologies like these seem ominous and unsettling to us or when…

My Utmost For His Highest In the Matter of Determination. Abide in Me. John 15:4. The Spirit of Jesus is put into me by the Atonement, then I have to construct with patience the way of thinking that is exactly in accordance with my Lord. God will not make me think like Jesus, I have…
