C.H. Spurgeon's Morning Devotional

"Behold, I am vile."-Job 40:4
    
    One cheering word, poor lost sinner, for thee! You think you must not come to God because YOU are vile. Now, there is not a saint living on earth but has been made to feel that he is vile. If Job, and Isaiah, and Paul were all obliged to say "I am vile," oh, poor sinner, wilt thou be ashamed to join in the same confession? If divine grace does not eradicate all sin from the believer, how dost thou hope to do it thyself? and if God loves His people while they are yet vile, dost thou think thy vileness will prevent His loving thee? Believe on Jesus, thou outcast of the world's society! Jesus calls thee, and such as thou art.
    
    "Not the righteous, not the righteous;
    Sinners, Jesus came to call."
    
    Even now say, "Thou hast died for sinners; I am a sinner, Lord Jesus, sprinkle Thy blood on me"; if thou wilt confess thy sin thou shalt find pardon. If, now, with all thy heart, thou wilt say, "I am vile, wash me," thou shalt be washed now. If the Holy Spirit shall enable thee from thy heart to cry
    
    Just as I am, without one plea
    But that Thy blood was shed for me,
    And that thou bidd'st me come to Thee,
    O Lamb of God, I come!"
    
    thou shalt rise from reading this morning's portion with all thy sins pardoned; and though thou didst wake this morning with every sin that man hath ever committed on thy head, thou shalt rest to-night accepted in the Beloved; though once degraded with the rags of sin, thou shalt be adorned with a robe of righteousness, and appear white as the angels are. For "now," mark it, "Now is the accepted time." If thou "believest on Him who justifieth the ungodly thou art saved." Oh! may the Holy Spirit give thee saving faith in Him who receives the vilest.

question(s) of the DAY!



We haven't done an Aloha Friday in awhile so thought today would be a good day there are two places that I'm going to post my AF to.  Each one asks a different question so here they are.   Leave a comment with your answer if you wish.....

First place is @ An Island Life  her question this week is....

When you’re short on time, what’s your favorite quick meal?

Answer:  Spaghetti  





What is your favorite summertime drink?

Answer:  Sun Tea




Don't forget about the FNSI tonight over @ Heidi's Don't know what FNSI is check out the details here.  I'm going to be sewing early today because of wedding tonight.  My plans are to sew from 1-3 but somewhere around the world it is night time and others will be sewing with me.

Now I must be off and get a little bike ride in ....



I don't know why because later this morning I have to walk a little ways to pick up my daughter's car from the mechanic.  BUT none-the-less flowers are needing a little drink of water at the church so I must ride my bike...OR walk to water them anyway I could use the exercise.  Happy day to you all.... and I hope you all decide to get some sewing in today.

    Quick meal on the run for me is a quick sandwich or a bowl of cereal. :) Favorite summertime drink is ice tea or iced green tea - if it's the happy hour sort of drink, pina colada or rum and coke. :)
