The Son of God, by David C. Brown

"...the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me."
         Galatians 2:20

THE SON OF GOD

When I was bound by darkness
Beneath a load of sin
With judgement as my prospect
And fearfulness within
Who shone upon my darkness?
Who worked to set me free?
The Son of God who loved me
And gave Himself for me.

I'm longing for the moment
When all the ransomed crowds,
Arising into glory,
Will meet Him in the clouds;
How wonderful the moment
When blissfully I see
The Son of God who loved me
And gave Himself for me.

He is the Lord of glory
And is the Prince of peace,
Creator and Redeemer,
Whose wonders will not cease:
Wonder of grace and mercy
That such a One should be
The Son of God who loved me
And gave Himself for me.

O Father, make me like Him,
The Man of thy delight!
O Holy Spirit guide me
Where he will be my Light!
Help me, my Lord and master
To be conformed to Thee
The Son of God who loved me
And gave Himself for me!

Will or shall?

In the first person simply "shall" foretells,
In "will" a threat or else a promise dwells.
"Shall"  in the second and third does threat,
"Will" simply then foretells the future feat.

Fwd: Gems From My Reading - 4695

Stand thou still a while, that I may show thee the word of God.  1 Samuel 9:27 
I need to spend more time...

"Be of good cheer."

"As Thou hast went me Me into the world, even so have I sent them into the world."
(John 17:18)

"As My Father hath sent Me, even so send I you."
(John 20:21)

Such is the Christian's Mission. 
 
A Christian is not to shut himself within the walls of a monastery or convent.  Christianity does not consist in joining a brotherhood or a sisterhood.  Nothing of the kind.  We are called to move up and down in the varied relations of life, and to act in our Divinely appointed spheres, to the glory of God.  It is not a question of what we we are doing, but of how we do it.  All depends upon the object which governs our heart.

If Christ be the commanding and absorbing object of the heart, all will be right; if He be not, nothing is right.  Two persons may sit down at the same table to eat; the one eats to gratify his appetite, the other eats to the glory of God - eats simply to keep his body in proper working order as God's vessel, the temple of the Holy Spirit, the instrument for Christ's service.

So in everything.  It is our sweet privilege to set the Lord always before us.  He is our model.  As He was sent into the world, so are we.  What did He come to do?  To glorify God.  How did He live?  By the Father.
  
"As the living Father hath sent Me, and I live by the Father, so he that eateth Me, even he shall live by Me" (John 6:57).   
(The All-Sufficiency of Christ - C.H. Mackintosh)
