Whole Bible (46)Old Testament (1)Individual Books (3)
Verses 1-25
‘Ah’, said he, ‘& you will always be miserable if you don’t do as my text tells you, that is, look unto Christ.’ And then he called out, with all his might, ‘Young man, look! In God’s name look, & look now!’ - I did look blessed be God! - I know I looked then & there, & he who but that minute before had been near despair had the fullness of joy & hope. And that instant he who was already to destroy himself could have stood up there & then to sing!” [“This was the voice of God to my soul!”]
Look within & be distressed? - Look back & be defeated?
Look around & be distracted? - Look ahead & be
dismayed? or, Look will you UP! & be delivered?
