Spurgeon


This morning I was reading Charles Spurgeon's Morning and Evening Devotions. I don't read it all the time, but when I do, I always get something out of it. Today I read the evening devotion from April 30, and I want to share a part with you. The verse he talked about was Psalm 139:17, which says, "How precious to me are Your thoughts, O God!" He expounded on it, talking about how much the Lord thinks of us. God is looking down on us, thinking about us, listening to us, and loving us; His eyes are always fixed on us. The ending of the devotion stuck out to me. Spurgeon said, "The notice of a nobleman is valued so highly that he who has it counts his fortune made; but what is it to be thought of by the King of kings! If the Lord thinks on us, all is well, and we may rejoice evermore." It's true. How often do we forget how great the Lord's love is for us! If only we could keep that foremost in our minds, how differently we would live! Let us endeavor to "fix our eyes on Jesus" this week.

Look to Jesus!!
