"There is one,
even Christ Jesus,
that can speak to thy condition,"
- - -
When all my hope in them
(priests, preachers & those esteemed the most experienced people)
and in all men were gone,
so that I had nothing outwardly to help me,
nor could I tell what to do,
- then, oh, then, -
I heard a voice which said,
"There is one, even Christ Jesus,
that can speak to thy condition,"
and when I heard it, my heart did leap for joy!

Thoughts for Reflection:
Is this what is missing in our churches, in our lives, today.
But what A WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT! Think about it!
Anything less is cheap grace, a half-priced salvation.
Anything less is not worthy of the Christ
who seeks to speak to our condition.
Anything less is not an embrace of "Lordship!"
