For many years I've used Charles Spurgeon's little devotional book, "Morning and Evening", as an encouragement for my own quiet time. I'm reading from his entry for evening, August 31. "If we walk in thFe light, as he is in the light (1 John 1:7) As he is in the light! Can we ever attain this?... I cannot attain to that perfection of purity and truth which belongs to the Lord of Hosts by nature as the infinitely good, yet I can set the Lord always before me, and strive, by the help of the indwelling Spirit, after conformity to His image."
What a thought for sleep - I want to wake up tomorrow morning with thoughts of my Lord. David says, I will wake the dawn!
Join me in praising Him in the morning and the evening.
Will you send me your devotional thoughts and encouragements so I can post them here for our sisters in Christ? Sometimes when I wake up in the night or get up in the early morning I feel I'm like the owl of Psalm 102:6&7, "I am like the vulture of the wilderness, like an owl of the waste places; I lie awake, I am like a lonely bird on the housetop..." How wonderful to think of God's women bowing before Him in the morning and offering their homes and lives to Him for the day.
