I have been reading Susannah Spurgeon's Morning Devotions "Free Grace and Dying Love" and let me just say...I LOVE HER! Her meditations on the scriptures are just so sweet to my soul. She truly knew the Love of the Lord! I thought I'd share a little excerpt from what I read this morning. Mostly because I so needed to hear it! Secondly, because it's beautiful and encouraging to anyone who reads it!
The Kindness Of God
"My Kindness shall not depart from thee." ( Isa 54:10)
O my loving Lord, let the support and comfort of this precious 'shall not' sink deep into my soul this morning and strengthen me to face every difficulty, and resist every evil, and bear any trial with the courage such an assurance gives! Or, make it a sweet resting-place and refuge for me, Lord, where I may be sheltered from all the disturbing changes fo the world around me. Though friends may grow cold, and times may change, and circumstances may alter, and old age may creep on, and infirmities may gather themselves together, and flesh and heart may fail- yes, though my feet touch the cold waters of the river of death- this promise will stand firm and true, and your kindness shall not depart from me for ever, for it shall present me 'faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy.' - Susannah Spurgeon
