A woman is wretched if she does not love her husband, but I fancy that a man gets on very well without any such feeling.

There are issues of human welfare all over the world. The Mormon church has over $100 billion that could make a difference. They do not.

What kind of God leads that church?

The Believer's Daily Remembrancer

Devotional for March 30

"Yea, He loved the people." - Deuteronomy 33:3

AND what were the people whom He loved? Poor, oppressed, rebellious, stiff-necked, hard-hearted, unworthy creatures. Just such are His people by nature now. Such are we. Yet He loves us; pities us; and distinguishes us from others around us. He spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all; and with Him He will freely give us all things. Though He has not yet all His people with Him, yet He has Jesus sitting at His right hand, who is their Representative; the express image and exact likeness of His elect. All the rays of His love centre in Him, who is the Head of His body the Church. All the streams of delight empty themselves into Him and through Him flow down to every believer on earth. As He loveth Jesus so He loveth us; while He loveth Jesus, He will love us; for Christ and we are one. What is done to us, is done to Him; and what is done to, or bestowed upon Him, as man and Mediator, is done to and bestowed upon us. O glorious mystery of infinite and eternal love! O direct my heart into this love of God!

O love of unexampled kind! That leaves all thought so far behind; Where length, and breadth, and depth, and height, Are lost to my astonish'd sight: Lord shed abroad that love of Thine In this poor sinful heart of mine.

Surely, if I sent you to such, they would listen to you. 7 But the house of Israel will not be willing to…

Hardhearted

18 being darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardness of their heart

Ephesians 4:18

Somethings in life seem so easy to me now, that is until I try explaining them to my kids. An example is blowing a bubble with bubble gum. I can do it without thinking about it. However when I have been asked by my kids how to do…

Hard-headed and hard-hearted are not the same. You can have a soft heart and be stubborn about caring more and hurting less.
