Jun. 9, 2009 - Embracing the Gospel
"When the gospel is really embraced, it makes men kind relatives and faithful friends; it teaches them to bear the burdens, and to bear with the infirmities of those with whom they are connected, to consider their peace and happiness more than their own." Matthew Henry (Mt. 18)
I knew that as I wrote my last entry that I would be tested. I failed miserably this weekend. :o( LORD, I need YOUR deliverance speedily! As I read this today, I ask also that YOU would open my eyes that YOUR gospel would be made more real, more clear to me. Don't let me forget what YOU have done. May my hands be open, my eyes be upward and my feet ready to walk where YOU would have me. May my heart be humble and my mind atune to YOUR will. May my spirit be filled with YOUR Holy Spirit. Be gentle with me but be persisitent.
