Scripture: Judges 16:18-31
“Oh, the safety and security of the saints, even in the worst of times – in the time of plague! God’s eye is upon them, his ear is open to their cry; Christ’s left hand is under their head, and his right hand doth embrace them, all the angels attending upon them.”
William Bridge
“The other gods were strong; but Thou wast weak;
They rode, but Thou didst stumble to a throne;
But to our wounds only God’s wounds can speak,
And not a god has wounds, but Thou alone.”
Edward Shillito
“We have been silent witnesses of evil deeds; we have been drenched by many storms; we have learnt the arts of equivocation and pretence; experience has made us suspicious of others and kept us from being truthful and open; intolerable conflicts have worn us down and even made us cynical. Are we still of any use? What we shall need is not geniuses, or cynics, or misanthropes, or clever tacticians, but plain, honest, and straightforward men.”
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
