    "Christ lives in me". With these words the Apostle Paul describes the distinctive feature of true Christians in every generation the world over.

    "all that is within me”. The Psalmist told his soul to praise the Lord, but more than that, marshalled all his forces - "all that is within me".

  • “Great peace have they which love thy law” [Psalm 119:165]

    "Great peace have they which love thy law". It is these who have great peace because what they cannot explain they know God can and He has everything under His control. They have great peace because when it seems they have failed, they know God can take the broken pieces and make them into something ... Read more

  • “Arise, and do not be afraid” [Matthew 17:7(RAV)]

    "Arise, and do not be afraid". The disciples fell on their faces and were greatly afraid when the voice of God the Father was heard on the Mount of Transfiguration.
