 Hi all. 

Just reading Harry Ironsides Daily Meditations and I thought I would share some of his writing with you regarding his life in Jesus Christ and a reference to the Apostle Pauls life as written in Galatians 2:20:

Galatians 2:20
I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

Now I will Glory in the Cross
For this I count the world but dross
There I with Christ was crucified
His death is mine: with Him I died
And while I live my song shall be
No longer I but Christ in me. - Harry Ironside

How good it is to know Jesus Christ. Not as the world knows Him but as One who is my Saviour and Lord.
One who gives me the peace of understanding about my eternal destination with Him.
I pray if you are reading this that you will take time to consider this Jesus who was given that all could be saved.

Hi all.

What a Joy we have in knowing that God's Mercy in forgiveness for our sin is available to all even:

  • from the beginning of time (Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel)
  •  to the present (Romans 10:17  For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved) and beyond.

The Psalmist below gives clarity below of the immense forgiveness to all.

Praying this is a Blessing to all who read it. 

My Soul Waits for the Lord

 Psalms 130:1-8

(1)  A Song of degrees. Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.

(2)  Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

(3)  If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

(4)  But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

(5)  I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

(6)  My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

(7)  Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

(8)  And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
