David Pawson again!

It was a great privilege to hear David Pawson last night, and another one to hear him again this morning (by invitation to Capernwray Bible School) !! His message was inspiring and I was so blessed. Wow! He packed in some hard-hitting comments which challenged everyone to think more seriously about many things!

Tell Him

Here's another poem that was in the Traveling towards sunrise devotional: Tell Him about your heartache And tell Him your loneliness too Tell Him your baffled purpose When you scarce know what to do. Then leaving all your weakness With the One Divinely Strong Forget that you bear the burden And carry away the song. I rather like it. How about you?

Leave it to me, Child, Leave it to me.

Leave it to me, Child, leave it to Me, Dearer thy garden to me than to thee, Lift up thy heart, Child, lift up thine eyes, Naught can defeat Me, naught can surprise. Leave it to me, Child, leave it to Me, Trust in the Wall of Fire, look up and see Stars in their courses shine through the night Both are alike to me -- darkness and light. Leave it to me, Child, leave it to me, Let stop the burden too heavy for thee. That which I will, My Hand shall perform, Fair are the lilies that weather the storm. By Amy Carmichael (Written after a storm had threatened to ruin her garden, but rather "washed" it. The flowers that came through the storm were more beautiful afterwards. She remembered then that her garden of beloved children were even dearer to God than to her. She would trust Him to perfect them.) I heard this as a song the other day, and it's been going round in my head ever since! How lovely to know that we can trust God and leave it all to Him.

Beauty of Holiness

Image
The Daily Spurgeon Daily reflection and inspiration from the "Prince of Preachers," Charles Haddon Spurgeon. FRIDAY, APRIL 13, 2012 The Fragrant Beauty of Holiness The Easterns did not think themselves fit for their banquets till they had washed their face and anointed themselves with perfumed oil. They were very fond of locks dripping with oil and faces bright therewith. Certainly there is a beauty which the Spirit gives to men, which they can never obtain in any other way. Oh, the excellence of the character that is formed by the hand of the Spirit of God! It is a beautiful thing which even God himself delights to look upon; it is a thing of beauty, and in the most emphatic sense a joy for ever. He that is made comely with the comeliness which the Holy Spirit gives must be a happy man. Other beauty may bring sorrow, but the beauty of holiness makes us akin to angels. Once more, it becomes a perfume. When oil was poured on a man his presence scented ...

In Your Presence!

I've known this song for quite a while and every time I hear it, I find it really lovely. What do you think about this one? Truly, that is where we should live every moment of every day.  " Surely the righteous shall give thanks unto your name: the upright shall dwell in your presence."  Psalm 140:13      King James 2000 Bible (©2003)   ( And what a great promise that is!! The Father has invited us to dwell continually in His presence. Come to think about it, we can't escape as the Psalmist says in the previous Psalm : Where can I go to flee from Your Spirit and from Your Presence where can I hide? )

Traveling toward sunrise devotional for April 4th

"...Moses wist not that the skin of his face shone..." Exodus 34:29 Henry Drummond in addressing an assembly of women said, "after you have been kind-after love has stolen forth into the world and done its beautiful work, go back into the shade again and say nothing about it." I once heard Rendel Harris say of the Bible critics, "They may tear the volume to shreds, but they can never rub off the light of God from the faces of His people." It was seraphic Murray McCheyne who said, "Oh, for the holy shining of the face! and oh, for the holy ignorance of the shining." An old woman opened a conversation with a man on a trolley car. "Are you a minister of religion?" she asked. "No," he said with a smile, "but why do you ask?" "Because, sir, you have a Bible face." Robert Louis Stevenson asked God to forgive him if he had not shown "a morning face." I thought this was really challenging and encoura...
