Words of Wisdom for Spiritual Sailors from C.H.S.



..."CHS" being Charles Haddon Spurgeon. My alma mater was Columbia High School, so I know the abbrieviation well. I always make use of Phil Johnson's Spurgeon Archive, particulary the Daily Meditation. Since my blog's theme is heavily influenced by the musicical stylings of Buffett, I thought that this excerpt from today's morning meditation was fitting to post.





"What were the mariner without his compass? And what were the Christian without the Bible? This is the unerring chart, the map in which every shoal is described, and all the channels from the quicksands of destruction to the haven of salvation mapped and marked by one who knows all the way. Blessed be Thou, O God, that we may trust Thee to guide us now, and guide us even to the end!"

Let us heed God's Word in all areas of life that, by faith, we may make our way through life's troubled waters and stormy sees to the eternal shores of Paradise.

Here's the link to the daily devotions:
