delight in the Lord

“I saw more clearly than ever, that the first great and primary business to which I ought to attend every day was, to have my soul happy in the Lord. The first thing to be concerned about was not, how much I might serve the Lord, how I might glorify the Lord; but how I might get my soul into a happy state, and how my inner man may be nourished . . . I saw that the most important thing I had to do was to give myself to the reading of the Word of God and to meditation on it.” –George Mueller, Delighted in God

"How amiable are Thy tablernacles,
O LORD of hosts!"

biblical womanhood

Favour is deceitful,
Beauty is vain,
but a woman that feareth the LORD, she shall be praised.
Proverbs 31.31

vain= a puff of vapour; transient

i am feeling quite dejected and disappointed now.
You have the best plans.
Help me to believe that.

"Destructive calamities in this world mingle judgment and mercy."

John Piper

Praying for Japan.
Think of the number of souls that have perished.
"For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" Mark 8.36

March Holidays

Charity never faileth;
but whether there are prophecies,
they shall fail:
whether there be tongues,
they shall cease:
whether there be knowledge,
it shall vanish away
1 Cor 13.8

had the privilege of witnessing Alicia's water baptism last afternoon.
my heart rejoices with her and am really touched by the grace of the Lord's mercy in her life!
may she walk in the light and be a vessel sanctified for the Master's use!

my more-than-a-decade-old good friend and sister-in-Christ now

Indeed, blest is the Tie that binds!
as i am typing out this post,
my heart is evermore thankful to Christ Who has proven to be faithful, gracious and loving in my life.
He, Who is Faithful and True,
Who goes before me,
Who parted the Red Sea,
Who died for my sins,
Who rose again on the 3rd Day,
Who knows my frame before the foundations were laid,
Who holds the earth in His Right Hand,
Who knows the balancings of the clouds,
Who was there when the morning stars sang together,
Who loves me with an everlasting Love.

In His Word,
man is described as dust and grasshoppers.
"What is man that He should be mindful of us?"
Grant me a contented heart O Lord
as I rest under the wings of the Almighty,
and my soul shall find rest.

Is anything too difficult for the Lord?

Grace Greater than Our Sin
Julia H.Johnston 1849-1919

"Julia Johnston was for many years involved in the work of Sunday schools at the First Presbyterian Church of Peoria, Illinois, and as a writer of lesson materials for primary age children for the David C. Cook Publishing Company. She also wrote approximately 500 hymn texts. The composer of this hymn, Daniel B. Towner, was for many years the director of the music department at Moody Bible Institute. "Grace Greater Than Our Sin" first appeared in Towner's compilation, Hymns Tried and True, 1911." Sermon Audio

Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,
Freely bestowed on ALL who believe!
You that are longing to see His face,
Will you this moment His grace receive?

Grace, grace, God's grace,
Grace that will pardon and cleanse within;
Grace grace,
God's grace,
Grace that is greater than all our sin!

"But where sin increased, grace increased all the more, so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
Romans 5.20,21

Love 3 and 4

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor,
and though I give my body to be burned,
and have not charity,
it profiteth me NOTHING.

我 若 将 所 有 的 周 济 穷 人 ,
又 舍 己 身 叫 人 焚 烧 ,
却 没 有 爱 , 仍 然 与 我 无 益 。

Charity suffereth long,
and is kind;
Charity envieth not;
charity vaunteth not itself,
and is not puffed up.

爱 是 恒 久 忍 耐 ,
又 有 恩 慈 ;
爱 是 不 嫉 妒 ;
爱 是 不 自 夸 ,
不 张 狂 ,

1 Corinthians 13.3-4

"For love understands, and therefore waits."
