Reverence and Awe

» Today's reading at Blue Letter Bible


Morning
I remember a saying that goes like this: "Yesterday is but a dream, tomorrow is but a vision; every well lived today makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Every day with Jesus is sweeter than the day before! "The joys of heaven will surely compensate for the sorrows of earth" and "faith's bright vision will sustain me till life's pilgrimage is past and I can finally say "Thank God Almighty, I am free at last!" Let us press on for the mark...let us run the race...let us fix our eyes on the author and finisher of that faith, Jesus Christ our Lord! He is our blessed hope of eternity!

Evening
It has been another day of mercy for which I am so grateful. Spurgeon earned the title "Prince of Preachers". Reading this devotional you see why. "No satisfaction in earthly things-God alone can give rest to my spirit". Only He can fulfill the desires of our immortal nature. "Jesus the rest of my heart, the home of my spirit". "Blessed Lord Jesus, be with me, reveal Yourself, and abide with me all night, so that when I awake I may be still with you". God make that our prayer! We want to apprehend what we were apprehended for! We want to be transformed! We want to be conformed! We want to be just like You!
