DAILY READINGS: 2 Samuel 6; Nahum 1; Romans 13
What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it? Luke 15:4
Who, when he had found one pearl of great price, went and sold all that he had, and bought it. Matthew 13:46
None but the Saviour knew the cost of our salvation. He once told of a shepherd and the distance he went to find a sheep that was lost—“until he find it.” He spoke again of a merchantman and the price he paid for a single pearl—“all that he had.” Truly the Saviour must have valued us highly when He went to the cross! And, we are precious to Him still. Let us live as such. —J. Strahan
O how He loves me! O how He loves me!
I know not why, I only cry, O how He loves me! —Johnson Oatman
