May a risen Saviour’s power preserve you (Phil. 3:10). May an ascended Saviour’s blessing en rich you (Eph. 4:8). May a constant Saviour’s ministry aid you (Heb. 7:24, 25). May a living Saviour’s word sanctify you (Eph. 5:25, 26). May a seated Saviour’s acceptance rest you (Heb. 10:10-14). May a faithful Saviour’s grace empower you (II Cor. 12:9). May a present Saviour’s presence cheer you (Isa. 41:10). May a holy Saviour’s indwelling mould you (Gal. 2:20). May a joyful Saviour’s joy strengthen you (John 15:11). May a powerful Saviour’s Spirit use you (Acts 1:8). May a loving Saviour’s yoke couple you (Matt. 11:29). May a perfect Saviour’s example allure you (John 13:15). May a coming Saviour’s return attract you (Rev. 22:12). May Christ Himself be all and in all to you (Col. 3:11)! * * * The Christian on his knees sees more than the philosopher on his tiptoes. * * * These may be interpreted in many ways, always knowing, however, that they form the constitution of the kingdom of God—begun here and continued there— but a new idea is this: an attitude toward sin. Poor in spirit—Consciousness of sin. They that mourn—conviction of sin. The meek—Confession of sin. The hungering—Conversion from sin. The merciful—Conversion to righteous ness. The pure in heart—Change of heart. The peacemakers—Consecration to serv ice. The persecuted—Chastening for God’s glory. Reward—“Come higher!” * * * You may give without loving . . . but you can't love without giving. THE BEATITUDES Matthew 5
