Faith's Checkbook (By: C.H. Spurgeon)

                                                Coming In, Going Out

"Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you be when you go out."
                                                                               ~ Deuteronomy 28:6

  "If I keep the commands of my Lord, I may appropriate this promise without question.

  This day I will come into my house without fear of evil tidings, and I will come into my closet expecting to hear good news from my Lord. I will not be afraid to come in unto myself by self-examination, nor to come into my affairs by a diligent inspection of my business. Oh, for the blessing of the Lord Jesus, who has promised to abide with me.
  I must also go out. Timidity makes me wish that I could stay within doors and never go into the sinful world. But I must go out in my calling; I must be a defender of the faith and an assailant of evil. Oh, for a blessing upon my going out this day!
  Lord, let me go where You lead, on Your errands, under Your command, and in the power of Your Spirit." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
