“The Lord is good to the soul that seeketh
Him.” – Lam. 3:25 ~
INFINITE FATHER, Thou art our life and light, our hope and redemption.
We have tried the world and found it a great emptiness; we come back to Thee
Who art eager to fill our souls with everlasting truth and mercy.
We come with a song in our hearts, for the list of Thy
benefits is beyond our counting. We thank Thee for the stirring, stimulating
days of the present, with their opportunities for improvement and service,
their concern for the poor and ignorant. We thank Thee for the mysterious,
inviting days which are to come, laden with secret stores for our replenishing,
hidden delights, and dark experiences for our training.
We thank Thee for the silent heroisms of the home; for the
hallowed drudgeries of hospital and sick chamber. We thank Thee that, despite the
cleverness of wicked men and the foolishness of good men, the Kingdom makes
steady advance. Thy bounty unto us is without boundaries. And yet we baffle Thy
plans, thwart Thy love, and wander wretchedly from the way of Jesus. We return
unto Thee this morning have our stains removed, our petty shams stripped away,
and our hearts fortified. Have compassion upon us, and bring us all by and by
to our Father’s home, through the riches of graces in Christ Jesus. Amen.
