C.H. Spurgeon's Evening Devotional

"They are they which testify of Me."-John 5:39
    
    Jesus Christ is the Alpha and Omega of the Bible. He is the constant theme of its sacred pages; from first to last they testify of Him. At the creation we at once discern Him as one of the sacred Trinity; we catch a glimpse of Him in the promise of the woman's seed; we see Him typified in the ark of Noah; we walk with Abraham, as He sees Messiah's day; we dwell in the tents of Isaac and Jacob, feeding upon the gracious promise; we hear the venerable Israel talking of Shiloh; and in the numerous types of the law, we find the Redeemer abundantly foreshadowed. Prophets and kings, priests and preachers, all look one way-they all stand as the cherubs did over the ark, desiring to look within, and to read the mystery of God's great propitiation. Still more manifestly in the New Testament we find our Lord the one pervading subject. It is not an ingot here and there, or dust of gold thinly scattered, but here you stand upon a solid floor of gold; for the whole substance of the New Testament is Jesus crucified, and even its closing sentence is bejewelled with the Redeemer's name. We should always read Scripture in this light; we should consider the word to be as a mirror into which Christ looks down from heaven; and then we, looking into it, see His face reflected as in a glass-darkly, it is true, but still in such a way as to be a blessed preparation for seeing Him as we shall see Him face to face. This volume contains Jesus Christ's letters to us, perfumed by His love. These pages are the garments of our King, and they all smell of myrrh, and aloes, and cassia. Scripture is the royal chariot in which Jesus rides, and it is paved with love for the daughters of Jerusalem. The Scriptures are the swaddling bands of the holy child Jesus; unroll them and you find your Saviour. The quintessence of the word of God is Christ.

Day #5 - Pooh and Company....



Today is my day...I decided to make a stamp that honored a favorite storybook character....Yep, I'm honoring the Hundred Acre Woods friends today...Pooh has been around a long time...1926

I want to thank Thearica from Pig Tales and Quilts  for being our faithful cheerleader for this blog hop.  Thanks to Madame Samm @ Sew We Quilt also for putting together the theme and giveaway.

started out with this

one of the requirements for this hop was the stamp had to bear the US or your state name...so found the alphabet fabric....





 did some fussy cutting...





another requirement was our project needed to have the price of a postage stamp on it....again thinking????

opted for a forever stamp means good whatever price may be

And the final project is....

fun pooh and friends table topper




thanks for visiting my Stamp creation. Don't forget to visit others on this hop.

  7. You can never go wrong with pooh and piglet.

    My hubby calls me poohbear and I call him my piglet. It all came about from a Christmas card I sent him on the first Christmas after we started seeing each other. The card said, I wonder what Piglet is doing, thought Pooh... I wish I were there to be doing it too".
