Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he, I am he who will sustain you. I have made you and I will carry you; I will sustain you and I will rescue you. Isaiah 46:4

MORSEL FOR MEDITATION

Have you no scar?

No hidden scar on foot, or side, or hand? I hear you sung as mighty in the land,

I hear them hail your bright ascendant star,

Have you no scar?

Have you no wound?

I was wounded by the archers, spent,

I leaned against a tree to die; and rent

By ravening beasts that surrounded Me, I swooned:

Have you no wound?

No wound, no scar?

As the Master shall the servant be,

And, pierced are the feet that follow Me;

But yours are whole: can he have followed far

Who has no wounds nor scar?

Hast Thou No Scar? Amy Carmichael


"One can give without loving, but one cannot love without giving."

Stewardship Today: “Based on the gift each one has received, use it to serve others, as good managers of the varied grace of God. "
