For the love of Jesus;

They that feared the Lord spake often one to another: and the Lord harkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the Lord, and that thought upon his name.

It came to pass that, while they communed together and reasoned, Jesus himself drew near, and went with them. — Where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst ot them. — My fellowlabourers, whose names are in the book of life.

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and ad-onishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. — Exhort one another daily, while it is called to day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.
Every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. — Behold, it is written before me.

MAL. 3:16. Luke 24:15. ‑Matt. 18:20. ‑Phi. 4:3. Col. 3:16. ‑Heb. 3:13. Matt. 12:36,37. ‑Isa. 65:6.

  1. Let Him do to me as seemeth good unto Him.--2 SAM. xv. 26.

    To have, each day, the thing I wish,
    Lord, that seems best to me;
    But not to have the thing I wish,
    Lord, that seems best to Thee.
    Most truly, then, Thy will is done,
    When mine, O Lord, is crossed;
    It is good to see my plans o'erthrown,
    My ways in Thine all lost.
    H. BONAR.

    O Lord, Thou knowest what is best for us; let this or that be done, as Thou
    shalt please. Give what Thou wilt, and how much Thou wilt, and when Thou
    wilt. Deal with me as Thou thinkest good. Set me where Thou wilt, and deal
    with me in all things just as Thou wilt. Behold, I am Thy servant, prepared
    for all things: for I desire not to live unto myself, but unto Thee; and
    oh, that I could do it worthily and perfectly!
    THOMAS À KEMPIS.

    Dare to look up to God, and say, "Make use of me for the future as Thou
    wilt. I am of the same mind; I am one with Thee. I refuse nothing which
    seems good to Thee. Lead me whither Thou wilt, clothe me in whatever
    dress Thou wilt. Is it Thy will that I should be in a public or a private
    condition, dwell here, or be banished, be poor or rich? Under all these
    circumstances, I will testify unto Thee before men."
    EPICTETUS.

  3. Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you are good, O LORD.
    (Psalm 25:4-7)
