Lord of my Heart’s Elation
(Copyright 03-10-2006) Sent by Rich Daniels (Shawano, Wisconsin) Lord of my heart’s elation,Spirit of things unseen,Be thou my aspirationConsuming and serene! Bear up, bear out, bear onwardThis mortal soul alone,To selfhood or oblivion,Incredibly thine own, As the foam heads are loosenedAnd blown along the sea,Or sink and merge foreverIn that which bids them be. I, too, must climb in wonder,Uplift at thy command,Be one with my frail fellowsBeneath the wind’s strong hand, A fleet and shadowy columnOf dust or mountain rain,To walk the earth a momentAnd be dissolved again. Be thou my exaltationOr fortitude of mine,Lord of the world’s elation,Thou breath of things unseen! By Bliss […]

One day every knee will bow and acknowledge that Jesus is Lord (Phil.2:10, 11). But right now, the knee of every desire within your flesh must bow and acknowledge that Jesus is Lord. Those lusts that rule you must […]
Do You Desire the Day of the Lord?
by David C. Grabbe (Charlotte, North Carolina) In II Peter 3:10, the apostle prophesies that “the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.” The Day of the Lord is a period of judgment just before Jesus Christ’s return when He will judge in favor of some but against many more. All but the most liberal mainstream Christians are looking forward to Christ’s return. However, many […]
