Spurgeon’s Daily Help
From the cross of Calvary, where the bleeding hands of Jesus drop mercy; from the garden of Gethsemane, the cry comes, "Look unto me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth." From Calvary's summit, where Jesus cries, "It is finished," I hear a shout, "Look, and be saved." But there comes a cry from
our soul, "Nay, look to yourself! look to yourself!" Ah, look to yourself, and you will be lost. As long as you look to yourself there is no hope for you. It is not a consideration of what you are, but a consideration of what God is, and what Christ is, that can save you.

The songs you are yet to sing, the grapes of Eshcol you are yet to pluck, the fair days of joy you are yet to spend, should be foretasted by your hope. Snatch from the altars of the future a blazing brand with which to light up the darkness of today.
Safety on earth, and after death the plenitude of Heaven, are our sure portion, wherefore let us sing unto the Lord the psalm of hope.
