A Thought from Dave

After a recent sermon by Brian on the Word of God, Dave was reminded of some words of George Muller, a Christian evangelist and coordinator of orphanages in Bristol, England.
The first thing I did, after having asked the Lord's blessing upon his precious Word, was, to begin to meditate on the Word of God, searching ...into every verse, to get blessing out of it; not for the sake of preaching on it, but for the sake of obtaining food for my soul. ...After a very few minutes my soul has been led to confession, or to thanksgiving, or to intercession, or to supplication; so that, though I did not, as it were, give myself to prayer, but to meditation, yet it turned almost immediately ...into prayer".
Thanks for sharing that, Dave.
