| “His way was much rougher and darker than mine Did Christ, my Lord, suffer, and shall I repine?” |
Take courage! Royal feet have left a blood-red track upon the road, and consecrated the thorny path forever.

our Savior, our Brother
Remember this, Christian, and let it comfort thee. However difficult and painful thy road, it is marked by the footsteps of thy Saviour; and even when thou reachest the dark valley of the shadow of death, and the deep waters of the swelling Jordan, thou wilt find his footprints there. In all places whithersoever we go, he has been our forerunner; each burden we have to carry, has once been laid on the shoulders of Immanuel.

This quote reminds me of "Pilgrims Progress". We are currently reading "Dangerous Journey" to the kids and it's been so fun to bring that classic out again. I haven't read it for so long.
Wow, that is so good. I would really like to read through Morning and Evening... maybe as a 2012 goal.
