May 8 - Choice Gleanings

 DAILY READINGS: Numbers 19; Proverbs 16; 2 Peter 3

…He constrained his disciples to get into the ship… Mark:6:45

He saw them toiling in rowing…and about the fourth watch of the night he cometh unto them… Mark:6:48

These disciples only did what their Lord told them and look where it got them! The middle of the night, the middle of the storm, in the middle of the sea. But…they were also in the middle of His will! Who gave us the grand idea that if we follow the Lord, life would be easy? Remember in the midst of the storm He has a plan. He sent them, He saw them; He came to them. —Sid Halsband

The winds of affliction around me may blow,

And dash my lone barque as I'm sailing below;

I smile at the storm as I lean on His breast,

And soon I shall land in the haven of rest. —H. F. Lyte
