A. B. Simpson Quote

God is preparing His heroes; and when the opportunity comes, He can fit them into their places in a moment, and the world will wonder where they come from.

From James 1:17:  “Every generous act of giving, with every perfect gift, is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.”

A. B. (Albert Benjamin) Simpson (1843-1919) was a Canadian-born pastor, theologian, and Christian author.  He founded the Christian and Missionary Alliance.

Hope’s Faith

From 1 Peter 1:6-7:  “In this you rejoice, even if now for a little while you have had to suffer various trials, so that the genuineness of your faith—being more precious than gold that, though perishable, is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.”

Blessed Jesus Christ

His mercy shares love

Brings forth faith’s new birth

Hope stirs from above

 

Resurrected Christ

His unfading light

He walks among us

Hope ready for flight

 

Revealed through Jesus

Grace walks within Him

Freed from sin’s darkness

Hope breathes with each hymn

 

Spirit filled by Christ

More precious than gold

Molds faith’s salvation

Hope rebuilds foothold

 

Trust in Jesus Christ

Father’s righteous Son

Called to embrace Him

Hope’s faith in the One

From 1 Peter 1:13:  “Therefore prepare your minds for action; discipline yourselves; set all your hope on the grace that Jesus Christ will bring you when He is revealed.”

If we are to discover the Lord’s best for our life, we must trust His way is better than our plans and desires.

From Jeremiah 29:11-12:  “For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope.  Then when you call upon Me and come and pray to Me, I will hear you.”

Charles Kingsley Quote

Music has been called the speech of the angels; I will go farther and call it the speech of God himself.

From Psalm 29:3-4:  “The voice of the Lord is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the Lord, over mighty waters.  The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty.”

Charles Kingsley (1819-1875) was an English-born pastor who also shared his thoughts and actions as a historian, poet, novelist, and social reformer.
