QUOTE OF THE WEEK

All the purposes of man have been defeated, but not the purposes of God. The promises of man may be broken—many of them are made to be broken—but the promises of God shall all be fulfilled. He is a promise-maker, but He never was a promise-breaker; He is a promise-keeping God, and every one of His people shall prove it to be so. This is my grateful, personal confidence, "The Lord will perfect that which concerneth me"—unworthy me, lost and ruined me. 

Charles Spurgeon, A Defense of Calvinism

Giving Thanks in November

DateTuesday, November 6, 2007 at 08:08PM

Tonight I'm thankful for new brakes, a working horn, and my husband's attentive driving.   We had a very close shave tonight.

What a comfort it is to know that our Lord is so busy on our behalf from His heavenly seat of divine authority.  We may never know when He has sent angels to minister to us in time of need, to thwart spiritual antagonists, and to strengthen us in times of weakness.  Like the chariots of fire that surrounded the prophet Elijah, how many times to we receive unseen help from those ministering spirits that Christ sends to us? 

--Richard D. Phillips, Hebrews
