Spurgeon’s Daily Help


If we follow the Great Teacher and go where He leads, we will find good, even in this dark world. But where can we find this wisdom? Many have dreamed of it, but few have found it. Where can we learn it? Let’s listen to the Lord, for He has revealed the secret: "Whoever trusts in the Lord, happy is he."

 

The true way to handle life wisely is to trust in the Lord. This is the key to navigating the most confusing paths in life. Lord, as this evening draws in, walk with me in the garden and teach me the wisdom of faith.

Prayer is like a telephone that connects God and man. Even though Heaven is far away, God’s voice can still be heard in our souls. Prayer is like a phonograph—God speaks into our souls, and then our souls speak back what God has said. If you don’t pray,

 

my friend, you’ve closed the gates of Heaven to yourself, blocking any communication between you and your Lord. But through prayer, a heavenly exchange takes place that pleases God and enriches your soul.
