A Month from Matthew – 26

For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?

or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?  16.26

Holiness hunger

“If you don’t have a hungering for holiness

you have reason to question your relationship with God.”

Are your eyes OPEN?

Accept Everything Scripture says –

be willing to question Everything theology says.

(God inspired the First – mere mortals wrote the last.)

Joseph

 

Evil brothers misunderstood;

Even hated his brotherhood.

Sold him into Egypt, a slave,

By God’s grace He forgave.

They meant bad, God used it for good.  (Gen 37)

French – born

ON THIS DATE

H Robb French was born 12/26/1891 at Denver, CO.  He attended Trevecca College and married Geraldine Trusler, June 23, 1919.  He (with others) founded Sea Breeze Camp (1946) and co-founded Inter-Church Holiness Convention (1952).  He wrote the songs “I Don’t Care What Church You Belong To” “There’s More With Us Than Be With Them” and two books The Revival Secret (1934), Sea Breezes (1971). This, the greatest man I have ever known, died 1/24/1985.

   One of his poems:

A fool went out to look about

And then began to figure,

“My barns are full, I’ll have to pull

Them down and build some bigger.”

   God said, “This night thy soul takes flight;

   Then whose shall these things be?

   You’ve for self and earthly pelf –

   You forgot eternity!”

Now, as a rule, we play the fool

And strive for earthly pleasure;

With selfish greed, for more than we need,

We live for earthly treasure.

   You may be rich as the fabled witch

   Who turned the stones to gold

   But when death calls you’ll leave it all –

   Not a cent can your dead hands hold.
