[Songs in the Night - December 2]
Through Him we...have access by one Spirit unto the Father. Ephesians 2:18
WE ARE never safe from being sidetracked unless
we go often to the throne of grace; we cannot be filled
unless we keep very close to the great Fountain from
which our infilling comes.
We must daily carry our
earthen pitcher to this heavenly Fountain to be replenished;
for we are leaky vessels.
We are not to feel
discouraged if we do not find in ourselves the rapid
growth that we desire to see.
Strong, sturdy trees that
can withstand the fiercest storms are not developed
in a day.
The growth is a slow, steady process. Z'16-183 R5912:5 (Hymn 229)
