May 19 - Choice Gleanings

 DAILY READINGS: Numbers 32; Proverbs 28; Luke:4:1-15 [1] And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, [2] Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. [3] And the devil said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, command this stone that it be made bread. [4] And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God. [5] And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. [6] And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. [7] If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. [8] And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. [9] And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down from hence: [10] For it is written, He shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee: [11] And in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. [12] And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. [13] And when the devil had ended all the temptation, he departed from him for a season. [14] And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about. [15] And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.

After 12 years of suffering, a desperate act was her only hope. She must touch the hem of His garment. When her fingers made that vital contact, Jesus knew He had been touched by a person of faith. He healed her and encouraged her to go on her way in peace. Should a harsh trial be in your way, the same peace she received is available for you today, as you supplicate at His throne. The peace of God will keep your heart and mind through Christ Jesus. —Arnot P. McIntee

A mind at perfect peace with God. Oh! What a word is this!

A sinner reconciled through blood; this, this indeed is peace! —H. Bonar
