  • THE PRICE OF VISION

    My Utmost For His Highest In the year that king Uzziah died, I saw also the Lord. Isaiah 6:1. Our soul’s history with God is frequently the history of the “passing of the hero.” Over and over again God has to remove our friends in order to bring Himself in their place, and that is…

    My Utmost For His Highest Let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works; not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together. Hebrews 10:24–25 .

  • DON’T CALCULATE WITHOUT GOD

    My Utmost For His Highest Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in Him; and He shall bring it to pass. Psalm 37:5. Don’t calculate without God. God seems to have a delightful way of upsetting the things we have calculated on without taking Him into account. We get into circumstances which were not…

  • ONE OF GOD’S GREAT DON’TS

    My Utmost For His Highest Fret not thyself, it tendeth only to evil doing. Psalm 37:8 (R.V.). Fretting means getting out at elbows mentally or spiritually. It is one thing to say ‘Fret not,’ but a very different thing to have such a disposition that you find yourself able not to fret. It sounds so…
