Keeping it in the heart.
FEELINGS
Feeling can not therefore be relied on in the matter of faith; Faith is a pure belief, a confiding trust in the promise of God, irrespective of feeling. This perfect trust enables one to surmount difficulties under the most trying circumstances, even when the feeling are depressed or well-nigh crushed.
ONE AT A TIME
Many try to embrace too much at one time; they take on the burdens of tomorrow or next week when the Lord supplies strength only for TODAY. Deut 33:25 "As thy days so shall thy strength be"Feeling can not therefore be relied on in the matter of faith; Faith is a pure belief, a confiding trust in the promise of God, irrespective of feeling. This perfect trust enables one to surmount difficulties under the most trying circumstances, even when the feeling are depressed or well-nigh crushed.
ONE AT A TIME
There’s never a night but it’s followed by day
And the darkest to dawn must give place
There’s a sorrow that cross our way
But is sent with a message of grace
CONTENTMENT
Fortify yourself with contentment, for this is an impregnable fortress.
THE WORD VS THE OPPOSITE
There are those who take a gloom as a bat to darkness or as a vulture to carrion. They would rather nurse a misery than cherish a joy. They always find the dark side of everything, if there is a dark side to be found. They appear to be conscientious grumblers as if it were duty to extract some essence of misery from every circumstance…
On the hand, there are rare spirits who always take cheerful view of life. They look at the bright side. They find some joy and beauty in everywhere…
In the most faulty picture they see some bit of beauty which charm them. In the most disagreeable person they discover some kindly trait or some bud of promise. In most disheartening circumstances they find something to be thankful, some gleam of cheer breaking in through the think gloom.
We have no right to project the gloom of our discontent over others life.
DISPIRITED HORSE
A discourage man, like a dispirited horse is powerless to perform his task. "What men need most in this world’s struggle and strife is not usually direct help, but cheer…
Many men have fainted and succumbed in the great struggle that one word of cheer would have made strong to overcome. We should never then, lose an opportunity to say an inspiring word. We know not how much it is needed or how great and far-reaching its consequences may be.
HUMILITY
Humility is "freedom from pride and arrogance, lowliness of mind, a modest estimate of one’s own worth".
WISDOM
Wisdom implies ability to judge soundly and deal sagaciously. It is knowledge, with the capacity to make due use of it. One may have abundance of knowledge and at the same time posses little wisdom. (James 3:17).
IMMUTABLE LAW
For it is an immutable law in the spiritual world that no one can wrong others and yet in the end himself escape unhurt.
One often meet is destiny on the road he takes to avoid it.
Be wise by reading and listening to wise saying.
