We Must Not Be Concerned Only With

The Growth Of Trees And Plants Takes Place So Slowly That It Is Not Easily Seen. Daily We Notice Little Change. But, In Course Of Time, We See That A Great Change Has Taken Place. So It Is With Grace. Sanctification Is A Progressive, Lifelong Work (prov 4:18). It Is An Amazing Work Of God's Grace And It Is A Work To Be Prayed For (rom 8:27).

We Must Not Be Concerned Only With That Which Troubles Us, But With All That Troubles God.

Now Nothing Can Prevent This But Mortification; That Withers The Root And Strikes At The Head Of Sin Every Hour, So That Whatever It Aims At It Is Crossed In.

This Day Was Yesterday To-morrow Nam'd: To-morrow Shall Be Yesterday Proclaimed: To-morrow Not Yet Come, Not Far Away, What Shall To-morrow Then Be Call'd? To-day.

The Vigour, And Power, And Comfort Of Our Spiritual Life Depends On The Mortification Of The Deeds Of The Flesh...the Choicest Believers, Who Are Assuredly Freed From The Condemning Power Of Sin, Ought Yet To Make It Their Business All Their Days To Mortify The Indwelling Power Of Sin...do You Mortify; Do You Make It Your Daily Work; Be Always At It Whilst You Live; Cease Not A Day From This Work; Be Killing Sin Or It Will Be Killing You.
