Spiritual Thoughts

A fter winter comes summer. After night comes the dawn And after every storm, there comes clear, open skies. ~ Samuel Rutherford T herefore we regard the message of the prophets as confirmed beyond doubt, and you will do well to pay attention to it, as to a lamp that is shining in a gloomy place, until the day dawns and     the morning star rises in your hearts. ~ 2 Peter 1:19

  If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant. If we did not sometimes taste of adversity, prosperity would not be so welcome. ~ Anne Bradstreet Before I was afflicted I went astray, BUT now I keep Your word. It was good for me to be afflicted so that I might learn your decrees. ~ Psalm 119:71, 75

I n the depths of winter I finally learned that   within me there lay an invincible summer.    ~Albert Camus  A nd now, O Lord, for what do I wait?    My hope is in You. ~Psalm 39:7

After winter comes the summer. After night comes the dawn. And after every storm, there comes clear, open skies. Samuel Rutherford (1600-1661) Therefore we also…..let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:1-2
