[Manna - December 28]
He shall drink of the brook in the way: therefore shall He lift up the head. Psalm 110:7
WE want to ask the Lord, our Master and Head,
that He will bless us more and more, as with fresh
zeal we shall endeavor faithfully and rejoicingly to
drink of the brook of life's experiences, and gain wisdom
therefrom that will fit and prepare us for His
service by and by; and which will the better fit and
prepare us for His service also in the present time,
and enable us by His grace to show forth His praises
in all the trying circumstances and vicissitudes of
life so as to glorify Him in our bodies and spirits which
are His.
Let us, as we drink of the brook, take a
lesson from the little birds, which, when drinking, repeatedly
lift the head as though giving thanks to
God.
Let us continually give thanks to our Lord for
every taste of life's experience, for every lesson, for
every trial—appropriating them all to our spiritual
development. Z. '02-14 R2936:5
