"Judge not, that ye be not judged." Matthew 7:1

Jesus says regarding judging - Don't. The average Christian is the most penetratingly critical individual. Criticism is a part of the ordinary faculty of man; but in the spiritual domain nothing is accomplished by criticism. The effect of criticism is a dividing up of the powers of the one criticized; the Holy Ghost is the only One in the true position to criticize, He alone is able to show what is wrong without hurting and wounding.

A sabbath rest still remains for the people of God. Hebrews 4:9

Our hard work during the week is coming to an end. We can delight in the approaching Sabbath. Your gift of rest keeps us refreshed to do your work. Amen.

Jesus said, 'Do not store up treasures for yourselves on earth, where ...thieves can break in and steal. But store up treasures for yourselves in heaven... for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.' (Matthew 6)


You have found a treasure: the treasure of God's love...Finding the treasure without being ready yet to fully own it will make you restless. This is the restlessness of the search for God. It is the way to holiness.
