Tuesday, April 23 - Evening

A 'white and ruddy' lamb there stands

  Expressing how He capture'd all man's

Souls, the crimson mem'ry of a fight

    Where white with innocence

                     He showed a light,

    And wooed our sorry souls

With glories odd more fair than gold

  Bright diadem, what's made from thorns

    Our victor only, these has worn.

Rev 5.6

Tuesday, April 23 - Morning

Whence comes the pow'r

      for conqu'ring sin?

  Give death-blow to what rises in

Our hearts? Not strength of Law

          by fear

    Or prayers enshrouded all in tears

But Christ, His Cross, access'd by trust

  Like first we came to Him, as dust.

Rm 8.37

Thursday, March 7 - Evening

Where else but God can trust be laid

  for all the loads we bear?

If all that's temp'ral wearies not

  can't spiritual rest there?

Find ye another who will take

  and see and know and care.

The arm of man grows weary but

  the Rock proves shelter fair.

Ps118.8

"Little-faith"

          may happy walk

     afar from trials grave

But greater faith

          and stouter stock

     need grander paths God paves.

Mk11.22

Wednesday, March 6 - Evening

Destruction follows near behind

  who haughty rides his horse

Not only those who blaspheme God

  but even ringing worse

Are those

  Who follow God indeed,

  but still,

    allow their train to swell

Instead of turning all to God,

  wherein more Glory dwells.

Pv18.12

Wednesday, March 6 - Morning

To make alive–

        The work of God

    Enshrined in mystery.

What He alone

        Requires and does–

    He's done it, yes, to me.

Jn3.7

Tuesday, March 5 - Morning

The wakefulness

          of Christwardness

     promote by company.

But keeping always

          clear in mind

     the end of road you see.

IThess5.6
