A Library Of Resources For Spiritual Growth
In the false and garish light of the world, health and wealth, the honor which comes from man, earthly wisdom and wit, prosperity and influence, are the only things which are seen to be bright and beautiful. But God looks upon the broken and contrite heart, the meek and quiet spirit, faith and joy in His beloved Son, crucifixion of the flesh, and the fellowship of Christ’s sufferings; these appear to Him beautiful, and are His delight. And it is in the school of suffering that we learn the wisdom which is from above; it is in the furnace of affliction that our faith is tried, that it may be found unto praise, and honor, and glory.
