Thoughts for the Quiet Hour

July 26
Grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ
2 Peter 3:18
Grace has its dawn as well as day; grace has its green blade, and afterward its ripe corn in the ear; grace has its babes and its men in Christ. With God’s work there, as with all His works, “in all places of his dominion,” progress is both the prelude and the path to perfection. Therefore we are exhorted to grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, to go on to perfection, saying with Paul, “I count not myself to have apprehended; but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
Guthrie

Sledges were fitted with flint teeth to dehusk the grain more quickly. Other workers would turn the grain over so that it would be evenly threshed by the sledge.
