DAILY READINGS: 2 Chron. 7; Ezek. 32; John 11:55 to 12:19

That I may know Him, and the power of His resurrection, and the
fellowship of His suff erings, being made conformable unto His
death. Philippians 3:10

All of Paul’s strivings and ambitions were centred on his supreme
desire to be completely conformed to Christ in every aspect of his
life. He desired to preach the gospel where Christ was not named
(Rom.15:20); to enter into the suff erings that Christ endured; to
know His resurrection power fl owing through Him; and whether
by life or by death to be well-pleasing to the Lord (2 Cor. 5:9). Do we
have the same passion? —E. MacLelland

Break every barrier down till Christ be formed in me;
Till of the travail of Thy soul, Thou satisfied, shall see. —Bertha Mullen
