Reminders of the gospel that was preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, that you may hold fast to the word preached to you.
Jesus Christ stripped himself of his glory that he might do this for the poor, and that they heard him say and affirm he would not dwell in the Mountain Of Zion alone. They said moreover that he had made many pilgrims princes, though by nature they were beggars born, and their original had been a dunghill. Then they read again in another part of the records of the house where it was showed how willing their Lord was to receive into his favor any, even any, though they in time past had offered great affronts to his person and proceedings. Where am I now? Is this the love and care of Jesus for the men that pilgrims are? Thus to provide that I should be forgiven and dwell already the next door to heaven. John Bunyan.
Ryan Bush:Jesus, the very thought of thee with sweetness fills my breast, but sweeter far thy face to see and in thy presence rest. Nor voice can sing, nor heart can frame, nor can the memory find a sweeter sound than thy blessed name, o savior of mankind. Oh, hope of every contrite heart to those who fall, how kind thou art, how good to those who seek. But what to those who find all this, nor tongue nor pen can show the love of Jesus what it is, none but his loved ones know. Jesus, our only joy be thou as thou our prize shall be. Jesus be thou our glory now and through eternity. Saint Bernard.
