It is Only in Him

Me:  Are you enjoying your walk in the park today?

Prodigal:  Yes, and in fact I spotted an alligator just resting in the sun.

Me:  Don’t get too close.  I am sure you would be a tasty snack!

Prodigal:  I will try not too, what book would you like to share from today?

 

This comes from Charles Spurgeon:  Joy in Christ’s Presence

 

Remember how impossible it would have been for you to receive a single spiritual blessing if you had not been in Jesus.  The love of God cannot be poured out into anyone’s heart unless he is clearly united with God’s Son.  No exception has ever been made to the universal curse on those of the first Adam’s seed who have no interest in the Second Adam.  Christ is the only Zoar in which God’s Lots can find a shelter from the destruction   of Sodom( Gen. 19-25).  Apart from Him, the blast of the fiery furnace of God’s wrath consumes every green herb; it is only in Him that the soul can live.

 

Remember the days of old..

Remember the days of yesteryear..

Remember when…

We are called to remember all sorts of memories, anniversaries and tragedies.

Today though REMEMBER who you would be without Christ.

 

Proverbs 30:30

A lion which is strongest among beasts, and turneth not away for any.
