'Lord, I see there is more to Christian
contentment than I thought there was, and I have been far from learning
this lesson. Indeed, I have only learned my ABC in this lesson of
contentment. I am only in the lower form in Christ's school if I am in
it at all.'
- Jeremiah Burroughs (The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment, Chapter 1: Christian Contentment Described)
Veni, Domine Jesu - Come, Lord Jesus
"Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other.
By myself I have sworn; from my mouth has gone out in righteousness a word that shall not return:
To me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall swear allegiance." - Isaiah 45:22-23 (ESV)
"Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts" - Psalm 95:7b-8a (ESV)
"Blessed is the one whose transfression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
Blessed is the man against whom the LORD counts no iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit." - Psalm 32:1-2 (ESV)
