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


Our Savior, thank you for still being present with us today when we call on your name.

In your name, dear Lord, I ask that you move with power and authority in our world today to open new opportunities for your message to be heard and hearts to be touched.

Pour out your Spirit in fresh ways to anoint and invigorate us, your people, to join you in your mission to save.

Our Father may this be so for your glory, and not our own.
Amen. 🙏

We hit upon the meaning of deep calls to deep when we recognize that human needs are great, but the riches of God are greater. Our wisdom is shallow, but His knowledge and judgments are unsearchable (Romans 11:33–34). God’s thoughts are deep (Psalm 92:5). His love is as deep as His immense heart (Ephesians 3:18–19), as He proved when He gave His only begotten Son to die for us (John 3:16). The height, breadth, and depth of God’s resources are without measure. From the depth of his despair, the psalmist found help in the depth of God’s goodness, and he was able to say in conclusion, “Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again—my Savior and my God!” (Psalm 42:11, NLT).

Christ Jesus is the crimson thread of redemption that runs through scripture from Genesis to Revelation, binding it all together.
