Morning splendor


But the good man walks along in the ever-brightening light of God's favor; the dawn gives way to morning splendor. 

Proverbs 4:18


"And this is eternal life, it means to know, (to perceive, to become acquainted with), and to understand you, the only real and true God, and (likewise) to know Him, Jesus Christ, (the anointed One, the Messiah), whom you have sent" John 17: 3.

Oh, that we may know Him who is perfect in all his attributes and who can become our focus, our example and great leader. Let us press on to know Him, and He will respond to us as surely as the coming dawn or the rain in early spring.

We need to become mirrors that reflect the glory of the LORD, to let His Spirit work within us, to become more and more like Him.

 "I will come and do for you all the good things I have promised. For I know the plans I have for you, says the LORD. They are plans for good and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. You will find me when you seek me, if you look for me in earnest." Jeremiah 29:10-13

Let us turn to the LORD!



God wants to quench our thirst,
to give us food that fattens up the soul,
to make an everlasting covenant with us
to give us unfailing mercies and love!

As soft as the morning sunshine
let His glory warm your being
Seek the LORD,
call upon Him!

Banish from your mind,
the very thought of doing wrong
Let us turn to the LORD,
for He will abundantly pardon!
