THERE are two motives which have influenced us in the production of this little book. We have sought, on the one hand, to supply aids to devotion either for the use of the family or of the individual, and on the other, to furnish points of suggestion to the student who is a prospective preacher. Perhaps it may he thought that these two aims are incongruous, and it would be too much to hope that in both we have succeeded; yet devotion is not the absence of thought, and thought is not necessarily the absence of devotion. At all events, the presence in the mind of two so reactionary aims may ...

As was Christ, my brethren, when in this world, so are we also. Such, indeed, is our calling of God. As Jesus was “the true light which lights every man that comes into the world,” so He says to His disciples, “You are the light of the world.” How memorable are those words of our Lord—“As you, Father, have sent me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world!” And how weighty are those expressions of the apostle—“We pray you in Christ’s stead!”—“We then, as workers together with Him!” There is something more than an interesting parallel that I ...

Biblical meditation is commanded in Scripture, but Bible memory is not. This is not a statement to discourage Bible memory, but rather it is meant to encourage Bible meditation. Biblical meditation is: "To dwell, ponder, muse, think upon or linger upon the truths given us in God's Word until our hearts are affected by them." You will find Biblical Meditation to be one of the most powerful and beneficial disciplines that you will ever learn. It changes the heart more effectively than anything else we do. The key word in the above definition is "until". This is more than a cursory glance at ...

What would you give to have Jesus with you — with you as He once was with people in the long ago? When reading about Him have you not felt that you were reading of an absent person — one whom you would see in the next life, but not here? If you love a person very dearly you cannot bear to be away from him; you feel that by staying away you wrong the loved one as well as yourself. I do not see how Jesus could love me very much and willingly be absent from me. I do not feel satisfied when told that He sees me; I want to see Him. Reading of Jesus in the Bible makes people hungry to have ...

The Bethany home is one of the most sacred spots in Palestine. There it was that Jesus found a shelter of love amid enmities and antagonisms. There his heart found rest after being wearied and hurt by the unbelief, criticism, and hypocrisy of the rulers. It is a joy to think of the comfort that he found in that sweet home, that there was one spot where he was sure of love, and where he knew that no hostile eye was upon him and no unfriendly ear was listening to catch him in his words. There were two sisters in that home. Both of them loved the Master, and both were dear to him. Each showed ...

We are to spend our future where He is. Do you remember He says that He will be where we are until that time? It is a most notable reversal. "I am with you alway." "When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee." "I will never leave thee nor forsake thee." Yonder, it is our companionship with Him. Here, it is His companionship with us. And if one companionship makes heaven worth while, the other makes earth worth while. How much nearer our ideal of living it is to have "the same understanding" between us and Him! If we were walking up a mountain-side with a dear friend, we would...

I WOULD like to make this letter to you a short and joyous sermon. My text contains only two words, but I believe them to be the sweetest two words that human ear ever heard. They are: “Thou shalt.” It is the old way of saying you must. I presume you do not at all like “must,” but I want to tell you that everything depends upon how, or where, the “must” is used. Some words are sweet or bitter, according to how they are employed. The word “must” is generally used in trying to compel one to do something that he dislikes; but sometimes it is employed to encourage a person to ...
