Why Serve?
For the love of Christ controls us. 2 Corinthians 5:14 D.L. MOODYI am getting sick and tired of hearing the word duty, duty, duty. You hear so many talk about it being their duty to do this and do that. My experience is that such Christians have very little success. Is there not a much higher platform than that of mere duty? Can we not engage in the service of Christ because we love Him? When that is the constraining power it is so easy to work. It is not hard for a mother to watch over a sick … Read More >

The Greatest Of These
“And now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.” —1 Corinthians 13:13, RV I used to wonder how a chapter could be ended up in such a way as this. I remember that as a boy, I used to read it, and it struck me as an awfully weak climax. After Paul had talked about prophecies, and tongues, and knowledge, and wonderful gifts, it seemed an awful come-down to say that without love they were nothing. A carnal mind will never exalt love above a hard task well done. It cheapens the medals men … Read More >

That Ye Love One Another
“Thus saith Jehovah, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls.”—Jeremiah 6:16 Periodically it does us good to look back, to remind ourselves of the mighty movings of God in the past, but we must not remain there. We must in some way under God relate what has happened in the past to that which can and must occur in the present if we are to know the touch of God upon us. It seems to me that there … Read More >

Time To Live
Jesus said, “Leave her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of my burial.” John 12:7 D.L. MOODYI can imagine Mary thought that if she waited until Jesus was dead she might not have a chance to anoint His body, and so she came before His death to anoint Him. There is a lesson there. How very kind and thoughtful we are to a family that has lost some member, and what kind words are said after the person is dead and gone! Would it not be better to say a few of those good things … Read More >

Restoration
And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.” And he went out and wept bitterly. Luke 22:61–62 D.L. MOODYThe Master might have turned and said to Peter, “Is it true, Peter, that you have forgotten me so soon? Do you not remember when your wife’s mother lay sick of a fever that I rebuked the disease and it left her? Do you not call to mind your astonishment at the draught of fishes so … Read More >

Starving Pride
Clothe yourselves, all of you, with humility toward one another, for God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. 1 Peter 5:5 D.L. MOODYA man can counterfeit love, he can counterfeit faith, he can counterfeit hope and all the other graces, but it is very difficult to counterfeit humility. You soon detect mock humility. They have a saying among the Arabs that as the tares and the wheat grow they show which God has blessed. The ears that God has blessed bow their heads and acknowledge every grain, and the more fruitful they are, the lower their … Read More >

Manifesting The Truth In Love
“That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive; but speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: from whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.” —Ephesians 4:14–16 I never knew until I … Read More >
