[Songs in the Night - June 1]
Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee. Psalm 55:22
ANY saint of God may have tears in the trying
experiences of the journey in the narrow way, but none
is excusable for murmuring.
Rather, each should say
with the Master, "The cup which my Father hath given
me, shall I not drink it?"
To those who approach the
springs of bitterness with the proper faith in God as
did Moses, the Lord makes known precious promises,
which "steal the bitter from life's woes."
As the Israelites
were led from the bitter waters to Elim and
its rest and shade, so God's spiritual Israel are not
tempted and tried above what they are able to bear. Z'13-217 R5278:6 (Hymn 112)
