Day 273: "And the glory which Thou gavest me I have given them."
Read: John 17:22 (22 - 26)
Taking a day to be with my wife who has been so very diligent in her
studies and in loving her husband and above all else - the love of her
life - The Lord who is our God. So I pray that today you will let these words of Reverend Charles Haddon Spurgeon work their way through heart and through your spirit. Weave them into your life today as you consider the breadth, length, height and depth and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of our God.
"BEHOLD the superlative liberality of the Lord Jesus, for He hath given
us His all. Although a tithe of His possessions would have made a
universe of angels rich beyond all thought, yet was He not content until
He had given us all that He had. It would have been surprising grace if
He had allowed us to eat the crumbs of His bounty beneath the table of
His mercy; but He will do nothing by halves, He makes us sit with Him
and share the feast. Had He given us some small pension from His royal
coffers, we should have had cause to love Him eternally; but no, He will
have His bride as rich as Himself, and He will not have a glory or a
grace in which she shall not share.
He has not been content
with less than making us joint-heirs with Himself, so that we might have
equal possessions. He has emptied all His estate into the coffers of
the Church, and hath all things common with His redeemed. There is not
one room in His house the key of which He will withhold from His people.
He gives them full liberty to take all that He hath to be their own; He
loves them to make free with His treasure, and appropriate as much as
they can possibly carry. The boundless fulness of His all-sufficiency is
as free to the believer as the air he breathes.
Christ hath
put the flagon of His love and grace to the believer's lip, and bidden
him drink on for ever; for could he drain it, he is welcome to do so,
and as he cannot exhaust it, he is bidden to drink abundantly, for it is
all his own. What truer proof of fellowship can heaven or earth
afford?"
"When I stand before the throne
Dressed in beauty not my own;
When I see Thee as Thou art,
Love Thee with unsinning heart;
Then, Lord, shall I fully know—
Not till then—how much I owe."
Let Us Pray This Prayer of Invocation:
(based on Psalm 25: 1-5)
To You, O God, we lift up our souls.
To You we offer our praise and prayer,
our worship and thanksgiving,
even unto our very lives.
Make Your ways known to us.
Show us the path on which we should walk.
Lead us in Your truth and teach us.
For You alone are the God who saves,
the God in whom we trust;
and the One on whom we wait.
Amen.
