Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Whenever Jesus called Himself the "Son of Man," He was emphasizing His connection and empathy with humanity. He wanted us to know that we can approach Him without fear. As a man, He understands all our troubles because He has experienced them. Because He has suffered as the "Son of Man," He can comfort
and support us. All praise to You, Jesus! Your use of this name shows Your grace, humility, and love, reminding us that You are our brother and close companion.

The shout of "Harvest home" isn't for the lazy who refuse to work and have nothing to reap. What can those expect who have done nothing for God or others? Even those with little will celebrate their small harvest, but woe to those who claim to follow
God yet live only for themselves—they will reap a harvest of shame. What a painful and disgraceful outcome! Will it be yours?
