Still Saturday::to yield to the joys of heavenly communion...

“The season of sunset as it draws a veil over the day,
befits that repose of the soul
when earthborn cares yield to the joys of heavenly communion.
The glory of the setting sun excites our wonder,
and the solemnity of approaching night awakens our awe.
If the business of this day will permit it, it will be well, dear reader,
if you can spare an hour to walk in the field at eventide,
but if not,
the Lord is in the town too,
and will meet with you in your chamber or in the crowded street.
Let your heart go forth to meet Him.”
Charles Spurgeon

Still Saturday::clipping the wings of thoughts...

Meditation clippeth the wings of thoughts,
which otherwise would fly away at the first clapping of the world’s hands.
~ Spurgeon

Still Saturday::to know this truth...

{As quoted by Mary Demuth in her soon to be released The Wall Around Your Heart}

Sixty::Forty-Four

 
  Lo, the flowery month is come! March winds and April showers have done their work, and the earth is all bedecked with beauty. Come my soul, put on thine holiday attire and go forth to gather garlands of heavenly thoughts.  ~ Spurgeon

"If inclined to boast of our abilities, the grandeur of nature may soon show us how puny we are. We cannot move the least of all the twinkling stars, or quench so much as one of the beams of the morning." ~ Charles Spurgeon
