Lord's day thoughts

Thanksgiving day prayer.

All too well. We have lots to be thankful for!

Birthday morning thought.

"A sinful state is a wilderness, remote from communion with God, barren and dry, and in which there is no true comfort it is a wandering wanting state. Out of this wilderness we are concerned to come up, by true repentance, in the strength of the grace of Christ, supported by our beloved and carried in his arms....A soul convinced of sin, and truly humbled for it, is in a wilderness, quite at a loss and there is no coming out of this wilderness but leaning on Christ as our beloved, by faith, and not leaning to our own understanding, nor trusting to any righteousness or strength of our own as sufficient for us, but going forth, and going on, in the strength of the Lord God, and making mention of his righteousness, even his only, who is the Lord our righteousness."

Communion thoughts......"He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love." He brought me, wrought in me an inclination to draw nigh to God, helped me over my discouragements, took me by the hand, guided and led me, and gave me an access with boldness to God as a Father.
~ Matthew Henry on Song of Solomon 2:4
