Comfort, Safety, Strength, Holiness!

There is no comfort, but in Christ's bosom.  There is no safety, but by Christ's side.  There is no strength, but in Christ's arm.  There is no holiness, but in Christ's footsteps.


Look up and see Christ, the merciful and gracious Savior, bending over you in most tender compassion.  He is very near to you. He marks each sigh, each desire, each tear, each prayer. He thinks upon and sympathizes with you.


[George Everard]


Hebrews 4:15-16 … For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
