So lovely, so wonderful and so wise are the contemplations and words of the late 19th century preacher, C.H. Spurgeon. "Beside Still Waters," a brilliantly compiled devotional, is certainly no exception to this. I have to say this has helped me so much that I'm amazed. I will include a few excerpts, but they are not going to do justice to the amount of healing passages that are in this book. If you or a believer you know is going through hard times or a period of depression in their lives, then this is like a medicine.
Here are a few excerpts:
"Recently, I sat in the garden with my friend and secretary. We were in perfect health, rejoicing in the Lord's goodness. We were happy as we sat there reading the Word of God and meditating. Dare we think of being so happy? Within five days I was stricken with disabling pain, and worse, far worse, he was called upon to lose his wife. Here is our comfort: the Lord has done it. The best rose in the garden is gone. Who has taken it? The Gardener. He planted it and watched over it, and now He has taken it. Does anyone weep because of that? No! Everyone knows it is best that He should come and gather the garden's finest."
"The more He loves you, the more He will test you. I remember Samuel Rutherford writing to a lady who had lost five children and her husband, 'Oh, how Christ must love you! He would take every bit of your heart to Himself. He would not allow you to reserve any of your soul for any earthly thing.'"
"Fellowship with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ is the joy of the Lord. The habit of fellowship is the life of happiness."
"Do not trust what is seen and heard. Respect the spiritual agencies that escape the senses and are only known to faith.
