Thoughts for the Quiet Hour

July 19
Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe
Ps. 119:117
Do not spoil the chime of this morning’s bells by ringing one-half a peal! Do not say, “Hold thou me up,” and stop there, or add, “But all the same I shall stumble and fall!” Finish the peal with God’s own music, the bright words of faith that He puts into your mouth: “Hold thou me up, and I shall be safe!”
