(Second Milers also read – Luke 9 – 10; Psalms 126 – 130; Proverbs 27)

Read the “0727 Evening and Morning” devotion for today, by the late Charles Haddon Spurgeon.

Good morning. I want to die. Don’t you? I’ll miss you all. No I won’t, because the dead know not anything. There are not anymore chances for any rewards, and I will soon be forgotten. All my love, hatred, and envy will be gone, and I have no more portion in anything that is done under the sun. Pretty grim isn’t it. But I am still living, and I know one day I will die: we all have an appointed time. But I want to die now…

We need to have the same mind as Christ: He obeyed His Father even unto death on the cross.

So I’m afraid you are stuck with me for a while. How long that while is, I don’t know, but it will not be until the Lord is done with me, and calls me home.

Peace.
