"You have granted me life and steadfast love, and Your care has pre-
served my spirit." (ESV)
Sometimes we feel like "throwing in the towel," and quitting the race of faith. Our infirmities, but especially our lack of faith, fuels this devilish notion. God "preserves the spirit" of His saints; and does not allow them to become so overcome, that they cannot continue the fight of faith.
May God's fresh supplies of grace, by His Spirit, enliven and revive the church (and every soul in it), today!
[Puritan quote of the day: "A Christian should consider, 'That murmur-
ing and discontentedness is below the high dignity which God has put upon him.' . . . The meanest [lowest] Christian in the world is a lord of heaven and earth." --Jeremiah Burroughs, in, "The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment"]
