What can we wish for more than "to know Christ and to be found in him?"
Jesus fills our conscience till it is at perfect peace;
our judgment with persuasion of the certainty of his teachings;
our memory with recollections of what he has done,
and our imagination with the prospects of what he is yet to do.
Charles Spurgeon

“Precious souls sometimes fight tremendous battles in order to attain to righteousness in trying places. Perhaps the heart has become wrong in some matter where temptation has been allowed to overcome, or at least to turn it aside from its singleness unto God; and the conflict is a terrible one as it seeks to adjust itself and be right with God, and finds itself baffled by its own spiritual foes, and its own helplessness, perplexity and perversity. How dark and dreary the struggle, and how helpless and ineffectual it often seems at such times! It is almost sure to strive in the spirit of the law, and the result always is condemnation and failure.
Every disobedience is met by a blow of wrath, and discouragement, and it well nigh sinks to despair. Oh, if the tempted and struggling one could only understand or remember what perhaps he has learned before, that Christ is our righteousness, and that it is not by law but by grace alone. That is the secret of the whole battle.”

Another favourite holiness song
This worship song came to mind in my thoughts about holiness.
I have been reading Samuel L. Brengle on holiness recently which was on my mind today. Here is my thoughts in today's blog post.

#23rd Psalm
The Lord is my Shepherd = that’s relationship
I shall not want= that’s provision
He make the me to lie down in green pastures=that’s peace
He leadeth me beside the still waters= that’s refreshment
He restore my soul= that’s healing
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness = that’s guidance
For His namesake = that’s purpose
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death= that’s testing
I will fear no evil= that’s protection (trust)
For thou art with me= that’s faithfulness
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me = that’s discipline
Thou prepare a table before me in the presence of my mine enemies = that’s provision in scurity
Thou anointest my head with oil= that’s consecration
My cup runneth over= that’s abundance
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life = that’s blessing
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord= that’s security
Forever =that’s eternity
