Doubt indulged soon becomes doubt realized.
Wisdom
If washed in Jesus' blood, Then bear His likeness too, And as you onward press Ask, "What would Jesus do?"
Wisdom

Wisdom
Earthly joy can take but a bat-like flight, always checked, always limited, in dusk and darkness. But the love of Christ breaks through the vaulting, and leads us up into the free sky above, expanding to the very throne of Jehovah, and drawing us still upward to the infinite heights of glory.
Love
It is not that I feel less weak, but Thou Wilt be my strength. It is not that I see Less sin, but more of pardoning love in Thee, And all-sufficient grace. Enough! And now All fluttering thought is stilled; I only rest, And feel that Thou art near, and know that I am blest.
Love
I take this pain, Lord Jesus, From Thine own hand; The strength to bear it bravely Thou wilt command. I am too weak for effort, So let me rest, In hush of sweet submission On Thine own breast.
Success
Oh, give Thine own sweet rest to me, That I may speak with soothing power A word in season, as from Thee, To weary ones in needful hour.
Wisdom
All the lessons He shall send Are the sweetest: And His training, in the end, Is completest.
Wisdom
Upon Thy word I rest, So strong, so sure: So full of comfort blest, So sweet, so pure— The word that changeth not, that faileth never! My King, I rest upon Thy word forever.
Wisdom
Jesus, my life is Thine, And ever more shall be Hidden in Thee, For nothing can untwine Thy life from mine.
