Brave Children

Dwight L. Moody 27


Brave Children
When the Lawrence mills were on fire a number of years ago, after they had fallen in there was only one room left entire, and in it were three mission Sunday-School children imprisoned. The crowd got shovels, and picks, and crowbars, and were soon working to set the children free, Night came on, and they had not yet reached the children.

When they were near them, by some mischance a lantern broke and the ruins caught fire. They tried to put it out but could not succeed. They could talk with the children and even pass them some food, and encourage them to keep up. But, alas, the flames drew nearer and nearer to this prison.

Superhuman were the efforts made to rescue the children; the men fought bravely back the flames; but the fire gained fresh strength and returned to claim its victims. The efforts of the fireman were hopeless. When the children knew their fate, they knelt down and commenced to sing the little hymn they had been taught in their Sunday-school days, O, how sweet—: “Let others seek a home below, where flames devour and waves overflow.”

The flames had now reached them; the stifling smoke began to pour in their little room, and they sank, one by one, upon the floor. A few moments more and the fire circled around them and then their souls were taken into the bosom of God.—MOODY.



Al our vows and resolutions end in denial because we have no power to carry them out.

The Afterwards Of The Life Of Power

Oswald Chambers
Between these times Peter had denied Jesus with oaths and curses, he had come to the end of himself and al his self-sufficiency, there was not one strand of himself he would ever rely upon again, and in his destitution he was in a fit condition to receive an impartation from the risen Lord.
When it is a question of the providential wil of God, wait for God to move.

Why Cannot I Follow Thee Now?

Oswald Chambers
There are times when you cannot understand why you cannot do what you want to do. When God brings the blank space, see that you do not fil it in, but wait. The blank space may come in order to teach you what sanctification means, or it may come after sanctification to teach you what service means.
Si Él no me hubiera amado con un amor tan profundo como el infierno y tan fuerte como la muerte, se habría apartado de mí hace mucho tiempo.

Jesus did Everything to Save Us

Charles Spurgeon
Pause, my soul, and wonder! You have goings forth in the person of Jesus from the days of eternity. Not only when you were born into the world did Christ love you, but His delights were also with the sons of men before there were any sons of men!
When you love you’re also generous, especially with your time, attention, assistance, and encouragement.

The Pillar of Love

H. Norman Wright
Tom Marshall shares some wonderful insights on how to love. Here is an adaption from his book Right Relationships. It’s true. You’ve heard about the pillar before. Probably many times. But very possibly not in the following way.
Every person has pockets of under-developed resources within him or her.

Encouragement Is a Four-Eyed Fish

H. Norman Wright
Every person has pockets of under-developed resources within him or her. Your task is to search for these pockets in your spouse, discover them, and then expand them. At first what you discover may be rough and imperfect.
