Whom having not seen we love....

Lord's Day, April 15, 2012
DAILY READINGS: Leviticus 23:1-22; Psalms 132-134; Mark 8:27 to 9:13


And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, and laid it in his own new tomb… and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed. Matthew 27:59-60

A linen cloth! A new tomb! A great stone! These few words tell the story of our Lord’s burial. His last garment was a clean linen cloth. Man’s last gift to Him was a new rock-hewn tomb. There was a last glimpse of Him before the great stone closed the door of the sepulchre. Those who love Him now wait for their first glimpse of Him, whom, having not seen, we love. —Jim Flanigan




Face to face shall I behold Him,
Far beyond the starry sky;
Face to face in all His glory,
I shall see Him by and by. —C. E. Breck

Treasures from Proverbs and Psalms

"How much better to get wisdom than gold, to choose understanding rather than silver!" -Proverbs 16:16 Psalm 90 A Prayer of Moses the man of God.   1  Lord, You have been our dwelling place   in all generations.   2  Before the mountains were brought forth,          Or ever You had formed the earth and the world,          Even from everlasting to everlasting, You  are  God.           3  You turn man to destruction,          And say, “Return, O children of men.”   4   For a thousand years in Your sight           Are  like yesterday when it is past,          And  like  a watch in the night.   5  You carry them away  like  a flood;   ...

He is still in the miracle-working business, and His business is the business of transformation.”    ~ Adrian Rogers “A man ought to live so that everybody knows he is a Christian… and most of all, his family ought to know.”     ~ D.
