DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 25; Psalm 139; Mark 10:1-31
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the
joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the
shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Heb. 12:2
How can joy and sorrow mingle? It is made possible only at the
place called Calvary. There righteousness and peace kissed each
other. The joy of our great Redeemer is bringing many sons to glory.
Our joy is to be with Him for all eternity. —E. MacLelland
We think of all the darkness which round Thy spirit pressed,
Of all those waves and billows which rolled across Thy breast;
‘Tis there Thy grace unbounded and perfect love we see;
With joy and yet with sorrow, we do remember Thee. —G. W. F.
