What I Believe
QUOTE OF THE WEEK

 

Compare yourself with those who on the Lord’s Day hear nothing except the dismal sound of the world. What a privilege it is for you to hear the proclamation of the gospel!

God's Minute 3/10

We are more than conquerors through Him Who loveth us.--Romans 8:37

HEAVENLY FATHER, the strength of all who put their trust in Thee, be with us each day, we pray Thee, to uphold our hands and guide our hearts that we may give of our best to Thy service.

Thou knowest our weakness, how much we care for the opinion of others. Give us of Thy strength, that we may never be afraid to do Thy will. Each day there come temptations. sorrows, successes; may we be ready to meet each with a clear faith in Thee and an earnest trust in Thy goodness.

Help us as we go about our daily task, in the mill or the office, the school or the home, to have pure thoughts and clean lips.

May we try to give ourselves in helpfulness to those with whom we come in contact, each day making some one happier by word or deed, so that, as the evening comes and the shadows lengthen, we may go to our rest happy in having been of service to the world.

Grant that we may, by our surrender to Thee, and our sacrifice for others, gain the strength to bear the cross, following His footsteps, in Whose Name we offer this, our imperfect prayer.

Amen.

Rev. Edward H. Bonsall, Jr.,
Morton, Pennsylvania

Hey Kim,

Thanks for visiting my blog and I'll make sure to stop buy as well. :) I love dogs too, we also have two cats. Being a moderator for the-highway, the list of your interests and "knowing god" and "the westminster confession" in your picture, tells me that we of course have tons in common, so hopefully we'll be able to edify and pray for each other. :) I hope you have a wonderful weekend and say hello to your hubby and kids for me, God bless and stay warm, I know how chilly it can get up there in Chicago.

Dave.

Hi Dave,

It's been fun getting to know you at the Highway. I always enjoy reading your posts. I share your passion for Reformed doctrine, as you know!

It's sunny and spring-like in Chicagoland today (well, 44 degrees, close enough).

Thanks for stopping by. Have fun with your new blog. I'll be checking in again!
