Waiting on God via Justification by Grace

September 11, 2010 by Christina

Brother Jon Cardwell of Justification by Grace reminds us today, by way of Charles Spurgeon, where the Christian rolls his or her cares – upon Jesus Christ, in whom alone we find rest for these sin sick and battle weary souls. His yoke is easy.  His burden is light.  (Matthew 11:30).

“Oh! It is a happy way of smoothing sorrow, when we can say, ‘We will wait only upon God.’ Oh, you agitated Christians, do not dishonor your religion by always wearing a frown of concern; come, cast your burden upon the Lord. I see you staggering beneath a weight which He would not feel. What seems to you a crushing burden, would be to him nothing but a small amount of dust. See! The Almighty bends his shoulders, and he says, ‘Here, put your troubles here.’”

—Charles H. Spurgeon (1834-1892)

    Beautiful words from brother Spurgeon. This reminds me of his words, “Oh little faith, have better manners.”

    Hope you and Steven are enjoying your weeend dear sister!
