DAILY READINGS: 1 Samuel 18:6 to 19:7; Isaiah 59; Romans 4:23 to 5:11
Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of God our Saviour, and Lord Jesus Christ, which is our hope; 1 Timothy 1:1
When the believer meditates and speaks about hope, we often limit it to heaven. That is true, and grand, of course, but never forget that He is our hope for the events of today. Salvation is a daily experience, and Paul goes on to refer to God’s grace, mercy and peace. Again, these are for today. What luxuries! —Brian Russell
Why should I droop in sorrow?
Thou’rt ever by my side,
Why trembling dread tomorrow?
What ill can e’er betide? —S. G. C. Custer
