Spiritual Fruit
It matters not what may be your station in life. You may
be a servant, master, wife, husband, child; your rank and station may be
high or low; but whatever it be, still in it you may bring glory to God. If
a servant, by obedience, cleanliness, industry, and attention to the
directions of your master or mistress. If a master or mistress, by kindness
and liberality to your dependents, and doing all that you can to render the
yoke of servitude light. There is not a single Christian who may not glorify
God, though in worldly circumstances he be, or seem to be, totally
insignificant. Glory is brought to God by those who live and walk in His
fear and more sometimes by the poor than by the rich. Only adorn the
doctrine of God in all things, and you will bring glory to God in all
things.

Dwelling

John 15:13
No higher expression of love could be given. Life is the most valuable object we possess; and when a man is willing to lay that down for his friends or his country, it shows the utmost extent of love. Even this love for friends has been rarely witnessed. A very few cases like that of Damon and Pythias have occurred where a man was willing to save the life of his friend by giving his own. It greatly enhances the love of Christ, that while the instances of those who have been willing to die for friends have been so rare, he was willing to die for enemies - bitter foes, who rejected his reign, persecuted him, reviled him, scorned him, and sought his life. It also shows us the extent of his love that he gave himself up, not to common sufferings, but to the most bitter, painful, and protracted sorrows, not for himself, not for friends, but for a thoughtless and unbelieving world. "O Lamb of God, was ever pain was ever love like thine!"

The Tongue
Behold, we put bits in the horses' mouths, that they may obey us; and we turn about their whole body. Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, whithersoever the governor listeth. Even so the tongue is a little member, and boasteth great things. Behold, how great a matter a little fire kindleth! James 3:3-5

There is a God
A little girl asked her mother: “How did the human race appear?” The mother answered: “God made Adam and Eve; they had children; and so was all mankind made.”
Two days later the girl asked her father the same question. The father answered: “Many years ago there were monkeys from which the human race evolved.”
The confused girl returned to her mother and said: “Mum, how is it possible that you told me the human race was created by God, and my father said they developed from monkeys?”
The mother answered: “Well, Dear, it is very simple. I told you about my side of the family, and your father told you about his.”

Outward Appearance
Jasper Silas Neal ©2016

Joshua 1:9
Courage that does not rest on Christ’s presence is audacity rather than courage, and is sure to collapse, like a pricked bladder, when the sharp point of a real peril comes in contact with it. If we sit down and reckon the forces that we have to oppose to the foes that we are sure to meet, we shall find ourselves unequal to the fight, and, if we are wise, shall ‘send the ambassage’ of a humble desire to the great King, who will come to our help with His all-conquering powers. Then, and only then, shall we be safe in saying,’ I will not fear what man can do unto me, or devils either,’ when we have said,’ In God have I put my trust,’ and have heard Him answering, ‘I will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Fearfully and Wonderfully Made
So fearfully and wonderfully made,
How could they say there is no God?
Reminded every breath that I take,
It's by Your hand I have been formed.
So what am I going to do with this life You gave me?
What could I do but live for Your praise?
How could they say there is no God?
Reminded every breath that I take,
It's by Your hand I have been formed.
So what am I going to do with this life You gave me?
What could I do but live for Your praise?
You gave me this breath,
And You gave me this strength,
And every day I'll live to obey You.
With all of my heart,
With all of my soul;
Let every breath I'm breathing display You God.
There's elegance in all you create,
Your grand designs leave us amazed.
The wonders of the way we've been made
Speak of Your power, tell of Your grace.
So what am I going to do with this life You gave me?
What could I do but live for Your praise?
Your grand designs leave us amazed.
The wonders of the way we've been made
Speak of Your power, tell of Your grace.
So what am I going to do with this life You gave me?
What could I do but live for Your praise?
So what am I going to do with this life You gave me?
What am I going to do with this life?
What I am I going to do in these days Youґve ordained?
What am I going to do with this life?
How could they say there is no God?

Lamentations 3:23
Lamentations 3:23 ~ They are new every morning. That is, the tender mercies or compassions of God are, which prove that they fail not; there are instances of them every day, not only in a temporal, but in a spiritual sense; they are ever new, always fresh and vigorous, constant and perpetual; such are the love, grace, and mercy of God, though of old, yet daily renewed in the manifestations thereof; and which make a morning of spiritual light, joy, and comfort; and whenever it is morning with the saints, they have new discoveries of the love of God to them; and these indeed are a bright morning to them, a morning without clouds;
