Have you never noticed in the streets that if one person stands still and looks up, or is occupied with gazing into a shop window, others become curious and look also? I would enlist that faculty of curiosity which is within every man and prompt you to search with the angels as they pry into the underlying…

If one had to be a soldier on the field of battle, it might be a very great assistance to one’s courage to stand side by side with the hero of a thousand fights who had always been victorious. If you had to journey tonight along some dark and lonely road, and an angel came from heaven to walk beside…

The V formation formed by migrating geese can teach us many lessons when it comes to believers working together to reach common goals in the church.

God recently allowed me to see Jesus through the eyes of someone seeing Him for the first time. Having the advantage of knowing how the story ends, we can easily forget the cost of our redemption and the love of our Savior.

Turn to Acts 12, where you have the record of Peter lying asleep in the prison, watched by soldiers. And yet at the dead of night, an angel of the Lord came into the prison, smote Peter on the side, bade him bind on his sandals and gird himself, and follow him. Peter went through all the doors of the…

Very moving story

I will never forget Ted Stone

I believe that a life spent in God’s praise would in itself be a missionary life. That matronly sister who never delivered a sermon, or even a lecture, in all her days has lived a quiet, happy, useful, loving life, and her family has learned from her to trust the Lord. Even when she shall have passed…

Do you see that train steaming along the iron way? See, it plunges into a cavern in yonder hill! You have now lost sight of it. Has it perished? As on an angel’s wing, you fly to the top of the hill, and you look down on the other side. There it comes steaming forth again from the tunnel, bearing its…

You never saw a fly on the dome of St. Paul’s; it would have been too small an object for you to see when walking around the cathedral. Now, a fly on the dome of St. Paul’s is a monstrous being, a marvelous individual, compared with you crawling about this world. It bears a much larger proportion to…

Christians are soldiers. If our soldiers were to take it into their heads that they ought never to be seen, a pretty pass things would come to. What are soldiers worth when they shun parade and dread battle? We do not want men who must always be skulking behind a bush, and dare not show themselves to…

Men would be less in a hurry to avow their pretended faith if there were no advantages to be gained. The rower in the boat sits with his back to the shore, but is all the while pulling toward it. Many tug the oar toward the world that they pretend to have renounced. How many are like that famous painting…

If you stand at the source of a great river like the Thames you see nothing there but a tiny rivulet, the fact being that we do but by courtesy speak of that little brook as the source of the river. It is only a very partial source; a great river derives its volume of water from a thousand streams and…

If some glorious spirit from on high, angel or archangel, had loved a race of ants, and had condescended for the salvation of these tiny creatures to assume their nature, and if in that nature he had died for them, you would naturally expect that at the conclusion of his labors and sufferings he would…

A swift young man, out of the ranks of the victors, runs with all speed to the city, rushes through the gate, into the marketplace, and proclaims to the assembled people the welcome news: “Our country is victorious; our commander is crowned with laurels.” That young man is the forerunner of the victorious…

I would compare faith to an emperor who summoned his counselors and judged whether he should go to war by their opinion, but he did it in the following manner: if they warned him that it would be a very fearful war, if they said that the enemy’s cities would never be taken, that the armies on the other…

In the dark and dreadful night, the destroying angel is let loose, with noiseless wings, and with a sharp sword that never misses its mark. He is speeding from house to house throughout all the land of Egypt, and from the firstborn of Pharaoh upon the throne to the firstborn of the slave woman behind…

Perhaps there is a wife whose husband has accepted an appointment in India. He has been long away, and the years of his forced absence have been weary to her. She has had loving messages from him and kind letters, but often has she sighed, and her heart has looked out of the windows toward the east,…

Cory Krambule only planned to take a short hike in the Utah wilderness, when a sudden snowstorm overwhelmed him. As a result, he could not find his way back to camp. He tried to get back to his camp, but eventually gave up and decided to light a small fire. He spent the night huddling over the fire trying…

A Florida couple said they were grateful to a man who found and returned a bag containing a quarter million dollars in lost jewelry. Joe and Elif Fitzgerald had attended a charity event in Florida and had a lot to pick up after the event. They put a bag containing $250,000 worth of jewelry in the back…

For the first time since forecasters began recording data in Los Angeles 132 years ago, the city failed to reach a high of 70 degrees for the month of February in 2019. The average high for the month was 61 degrees, significantly lower than the historical February average of 68 degrees. That means February…
