Good morning,
This week we will look at Grace Gem devotionals.
Short pithy gems from John Newton #2
The Lord Jesus, and the world that crucified Him–are competitors for our hearts.
~ ~ ~ ~
The storms of our life are guided by the hands which were nailed to the cross!
~ ~ ~ ~
We have work to do in the world, more to do in the Church and in our homes–but most of all, in our own hearts.
~ ~ ~ ~
Wonderful are the effects when a crucified, glorious Savior is presented to the eye of faith.
This sight destroys the love of sin!

Short pithy gems
from John Newton #3
They are the happiest Christians, who have the lowest thoughts of themselves,
and in whose eyes Jesus is most glorious and precious!
~ ~ ~ ~
My heart is vile, and even my prayers are sin. My soul is very sick—but my
Physician is infallible!
~ ~ ~ ~
How unspeakably wonderful it is, to know that all our concerns are held in
hands that bled for us!
~ ~ ~ ~
Our sea may sometimes be stormy—but we have an infallible Pilot, and shall
infallibly gain our port.
~ ~ ~ ~
Our work is great—our time is short—and the consequences of our labors are
infinite!
~ ~ ~ ~
Lord, save us from our golden calves!
~ ~ ~ ~
Abominations, like nests of vipers, lie quietly in us—until the rod of
afflictionarouses them. Then they hiss and show their venom!
