High Meditations


A dear friend sent these thoughts from good ol' Spurgeon to meditate on -
"...God has determined the end from the beginning. He has left no screw loose in the machine, He has left nothing to chance or accident. Nothing with God is the subject of an ‘if’ or a ‘peradventure’, but even the agency of man, free as it is, as untouched and undisturbed as ifthere were no God, even this is guided by His mysterious power, and works out thoroughly His own purpose in every jot and tittle.
In the end we shall read the whole of God’s purpose as on grand poem, and there will not be one verse in it that has a syllable too much, or a word too little. There will not be one stanza or letter redundant, much less one that is erased.  But from the beginning to end we shall see the master pen and the master mind drawing forth the glorious array of majestic thoughts. And with angels, and seraphs, and principalities, and powers- shall burst forth into one mighty song: “Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!  Hallelujah!  The Lord God Omnipotent reigns!”  We shall see how from the first even to the last, the King has been ruling all things according to His own will."
