Consider Him

Prior to leaving my office today, I focussed on a wall plaque bearing the words of Hebrews 12:3 from the King James version.
"Consider him...lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds."

This scriptural exhortation was valuable many times throughout the day today. It brought a reassuring peace when comfort was needed. A renewing spiritual energy when moments of ministry seemed to be an uphill battle. More than this, it proved to be a sure personal encouragement when hope was not on the horizon.

Try it and you'll see. Consider God...and experience His boundless grace. Consider
Jesus...and be blessed. Consider the Holy Spirit...and be empowered for the everyday!

SASB 579 (verse 2) ~
When we have exhausted our store of endurance,
When our strength has failed e'er the day is half done.
When we've reached the end of our hoarded resources
Our Father's full giving is only begun.
