DAILY READINGS: Numbers 32; Proverbs 28; Luke 4:1-15
The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out. Leviticus 6:13
Whether it was the brazen altar of salvation, or the golden altar of communion, the fire could never go out. We too have altars in our life that should never go out. Our daily devotions that put our heart in tune with the music of heaven. The “family altar", where our children hear of God’s grace and get a foretaste of heaven. These fires must not go out or grow dim. They need to be a steady glow, to warm the heart and light the way. The sacred oil of the Holy Spirit, poured on the live coals of Scripture, will keep the fire burning brightly, for the glory of God and for our spiritual wellbeing. —Milton Haack
Thus may we abide in union, with the Scriptures and our Lord,
And possess, in sweet communion, joys which earth cannot afford.—Anon.
