(Gleanings from the Inner Life of Ruth Bryan)
IS ANYTHING TOO HARD FOR THE LORD?
Oh, my precious Savior! You are all I need
for time and for eternity. You are . . .
my rest in weariness,
ease in pain,
my strength in weakness.
Is anything too hard for the Lord?
Or Is anything too small for the Lord?
Is anything too great or heavy for the Lord?
No!
My beloved and my adorable Jesus, I fall into
Your arms for support, guidance, and blessing.
Indeed, I am unworthy of the least of Your
mercies, and I feel it. But Your mercies are
free! Oh, the wonders of Your love, that can
bear with such weakness and wanderings as
mine! I worship and adore You, and would
joyfully sink into Love’s unfathomable abyss,
where sins and self are lost!
Oh! my precious Savior, how blessed is Your
presence amidst the storms of this weary land!
How does all that is of earth recede before the
overshadowings of Your presence! Precious Lord,
draw me more and more into Your secret chamber,
where worldling never came, where the flesh was
never fed.

To join in one person . . .
the Creator, with the creature;
and the Infinite, with the finite;
the Eternal, with a being brought forth in time
–far surpasses all the wonders of creation!
It behooved our Lord Jesus Christ to be made to us everlasting life, by His death.
Though He is the source of life, yet He could not have given life to us without having first died.
What is there, O believers, that should disturb your joy and peace–since the blood of God is your ransom?
