Faith lays hold upon the Lord Jesus with a firm and determined grasp. She knows His excellence and worth, and no temptation can induce her to repose her trust elsewhere; and Christ Jesus is so delighted with this heavenly grace, that He never ceases to strengthen and sustain her by the loving embrace and all-sufficient support of His eternal arms. Here, then, is established a living, sensible, and delightful union which casts forth streams of love, confidence, sympathy, complacency, and joy, whereof both the bride and bridegroom love to drink.
-Charles Spurgeon morning devotional.
How can I be open to faith building? How can I know His worth so much that no temptation can make me think anything is better than Christ? I have nothing but God's grace, and God's strength for today. As for today, I encourage you to surrender what life you think you have for the grace of God, which is what marks our steps, before we lift a foot, on a righteous path! :)
-Lindsay
