Today’s Quote
Everywhere among professors we find people who are Bible-taught, but not Spirit-taught. They grasp the truth with the mind, not the heart.

Spurgeon’s Daily Help
It’s a good thing when our prayers about our troubles are linked with confessions of our sins—when, under God’s discipline, we don’t just focus on our pain but remember our offenses against Him. It’s also wise to take both our sorrows and our sins to the same place: to God. David took his sorrow to God,
and he confessed his sin to God. So let’s do the same. Even your smallest worries can be brought to God because He counts every hair on your head. And your biggest sorrows can be entrusted to Him because He holds the ocean in His hand.

All the blessings, mercies, comforts, and riches that grace gives us flow from the endless love of God through the covenant, with Jesus as its foundation and guarantee. No angels go up or down except on the ladder that Jacob saw, which connects man with
his covenant God—and Jesus pointed out to Nicodemus that He Himself is that ladder, the Son of Man.
