I needed this today:
"Fling wide, then, the portals of your soul. He will come with that love which you long to feel; He will come with that joy into which you cannot work your poor depressed spirit; He will bring the peace which now you have not."

"Where our death seems to be, there our Saviour is. Where the end of hope is, there is the brightest beginning of fruition. Where the darkness is thickest, there the bright beaming light that never is set is about to emerge."
-from Streams in the Desert
"Anxiety about our family is natural, but we shall be wise if we turn it into care about our own character. If we walk before the Lord in integrity, we shall do more to bless our descendants than if we bequeathed them large estates."
-Charles Spurgeon
'Til the storm passes over,
'Til the thunder sounds no more;
'Til the clouds roll forever from the sky,
Hold me fast, let me stand,
In the hollow of Thy hand;
Keep me safe 'til the storm passes by.
-Mosie Lister
May God Himself restore to you something you lost and never thought you'd get back again. May He heal a soul wound you thought you'd never get over. May He pour out an abundance of joy and hope that makes you celebrate before the answer comes. Sleep well tonight!
Trust God with whatever you're facing today. He will give you exactly what you need—strength, guidance, comfort ... He knows what you need before you do. You are so loved, sisters.
O how sweet the glorious message simple faith may claim
Yesterday, today, forever Jesus is the same.
Still He loves to save the sinful, heal the sick and lame
Cheer the mourner, still the tempest, glory to His Name.
All may change but Jesus never! Glory to His Name!
-A.B. Simpson
"Your sons and daughters will prophesy" (Acts 2:17).
Prophesy:
To give instruction on religious matters: preach (Webster's).
Can we honestly imagine a woman who humbly proclaimed God's glory standing before Him and hearing, "Well, as a woman, I wish you'd stayed quiet"?

"That Trump orchestrated this situation deliberately is just the latest reminder that, in his mind, American institutions exist only for him to exploit to his own selfish ends, no matter how much chaos he creates in doing so."

"It is the incessant turmoil of the world, the constant attraction of earthly things which takes away the soul from Christ. While memory too well preserves a poisonous weed, it suffereth the rose of Sharon to wither."

Intervening in your own election, even if you believe wrongdoing has occurred, is not an official act. There is a fundamental conflict of interest that prevents it from being a legitimate official act.
Can we not acknowledge that Trump has subjected us to wall-to-wall coverage of tawdriness? Listening to people tell me he would somehow stop the slide of morality in this nation while he has actually been dragging us all into the gutter of his life has been bewildering.
Apparently this revelation caught Trump by surprise today. It's worth noting that the jury was not in the room, and the judge hasn't decided whether to admit these texts as evidence.

I’m glad we’re having this national discussion about executive authority. Amazing how many are outing themselves as authoritarian excuse-makers for a president that could lead a coup or assassinate a rival as part of his official duties.
They’d trade their rights for a king.
O Christ, He is the fountain,
the deep, sweet well of love!
The streams on earth I've tasted;
more deep I'll drink above:
there to an ocean fullness
His mercy doth expand,
and glory, glory dwelleth
in Emmanuel's land.
-Samuel Rutherford, Anne Ross Cousin
And when, before the throne,
I stand in Him complete,
"Jesus died my soul to save,"
My lips shall still repeat.
Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.
-Elvina M. Hall
If you’ll forfeit your principles to gain power to fight for them, you’ll be remembered as one who lusted for power, not for your principles. But if you’ll maintain your principles even if doing so jeopardizes your power, people will remember and be influenced by your principles.
"Then, since thou hast such a friend, and He invites thee, draw from Him daily. Never want whilst thou hast a God to go to."
-Charles Spurgeon

Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come:
'tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me,
his word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures.
-John Newton
