Next Day Morning Get C.H. Spurgeon's Morning and Evening devotional delivered to your mailbox every morning. There are seasons when the Christian sinks very low in humiliation. Under a deep sense of his great sinfulness, he is humbled before God till he scarcely knows how to pray, because he appears, in his own sight, so worthless. Sin may drag thee ever so low, but Christ's great atonement is still under all. Again, the Christian sometimes sinks very deeply in sore trial from without.
Every earthly prop is cut away.
He cannot fall so deep in distress and affliction but what the covenant grace of an ever-faithful God will still encircle him. This assurance of support is a comfort to any weary but earnest worker in the service of God. It implies a promise of strength for each day, grace for each need, and power for each duty. And, further, when death comes, the promise shall still hold good. We shall descend into the grave, but we shall go no lower, for the eternal arms prevent our further fall.
