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

                                                 Harvest of Light and Gladness

           Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
                                                                                        ~ Psalm 97:11

  "Righteousness is often costly to the man who keeps to it at all hazards, but in the end it will return an infinite profit. A holy life is like sowing seed: much is going out, and is seemingly buried in the soil, never to be gathered up again. Yet "light is sown," it lies latent: none can see it, but it is sown. It must manifest itself one day.
  The Lord has set a harvest for the sowers of light, and they  shall reap it. Then shall come their gladness; sheaves of joy for seeds of light. Their heart was upright before the Lord, though men gave them no credit for it. They had to wait: but the light was sown for them, and gladness was being prepared on their behalf by the Lord of the harvest.
  Take courage! We need not be in a hurry; soon shall our souls possess light and gladness." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)

  2. Please pray this prayer with me this morning. Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us of our sins, our debts, and our trespasses against You and man, as we forgive those who are indebted to us, and those who have trespassed against us. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil: For Thine is Kingdom, the Power, the Honor and the Glory, forever. It is in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
