1. Comprehending “To comprehend . . , and. to know the love of Christ’’ (Eph. 3:18, 19). My soul, oh, be thou blessed in compre hending More of thy Saviour’s all-surpassing love, And let thy prayers- and praises sweetly blending Rise to His glory into heaven above. So will thy deepest longing and affection Be for Himself, and thou transformed be Into His image, kept from sad defection; And men behold His beauty e’en in thee. —A. W. H. Our Living Example “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me" (John 10:27), Many are willing to point to a good way, and eagerly press others to walk, therein, but how. différent is the action of the blessed One! He becomes in everything the living Example. . . . Nowhere does He say, as did the Phari sees, “Do as I say,” but always, “Do as I do.” . . . We do not need to ask, “What would Jesus do?” We know, as we fol low moment by moment, step by step, where He leads.—A. T. Schofield. “In Preparation” “He who has begun a good work within you will go on to perfect it in preparation for the Day of Jesus Christ” (Phil. 1:6, Weymouth’s translation). Usually this verse means to us that God, who has graciously begun minis tries of blessing in pur lives, Will carry them on to a happy culmination. That thought is, indeed, in view. But the “ good work” may also be in the form of painful and prolonged discipline (cf. 1 Sam. 3:12). Happy is the Christian who can see that all the Lord’s dealings with him are in “preparation for the Day of Jesus Christ.”—Selected. God’s Righteousness “The gospel of Christ: . . . For therein 2. 8. 4.
The Passion Flower Thou lowly, meek and l o v e l y flower, But yesterday, at evening’s hdur, As trudged .1 upward with my load, I saw thee blooming by the road, And stayed my steps to wonder there That beauty so supremely fair Should waste its loveliness on me— Even as the Flower of Calvary! —CHARLES G. BLANDEN. is the righteousness bf God revealed from faith to faith” (Rom. 1:16, 17). Man has ever thought well of him self. He has gone about to establish his own righteousness. But while he does so, he cannot walk with God, since he is not agreed with God in the matter. . . . It has been wisely said, “Never expect anything from God except grace.” To do’ otherwise is to* be disappointed; to look for grace apart altogether from merit is to be abundantly satisfied. It is the only attitude that pleases God. —George Goodman. Desire of the Nations “And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me” (John 12:32). Tire desire of all nations was never found until Christ was crucified. But Christ crucified, like a divine loadstone, Has drawn to Calvary a multitude, that no man can number, of guilty hearjs, of bleeding hearts, of broken hearts. Thie cross, the true center and sanctuary of this fallen and broken world, Is the only leverage mighty enough to roll off crushed humanity the ponderous incubus which bondage to Satan had placed upon It.—Robert G. Lee.* 6. Comfort for All “Jesus wept^” (John 11:35). The verses of our Bible are merely a human arrangement, yet who can doubt that the Spirit of God controlled the one who made it in putting these two words into one verse ? They indeed should stand alone. . . . They have been the comfort of mourners in all ages, and they will continue to minister consola tion to His people until God Himself shall wipe away all tears from their faces.—Edward Dennett. *Reprinted from ^ “ C a lY a ro” by^ special^ per mission of Zondervan Rapids, Mich, House, Grand 5.
