The Searchlight

Friday. Ps. 139: 19-24.

When we’re willing for God to search our hearts, then we have made a big start toward the only way that will prove lasting. Were you ever surprised at your failure under stress? But God was not. He knew the state of your heart would keep you from meeting that test victoriously. Lord Jesus, search my heart, and lead me out of my own jailing way into thy way, the way of right, of victory.
