\u201cJesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever\u201d <\/strong>(Hebrews 13:8). It is said that George Muller kept on his desk a motto bearing the central words of our text, \u201cAND TODAY.\u201d Well might he do so, for surely few men have demonstrated better the truth of it. It is not difficult to believe in Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and He will prove one day that He is the same forever. But \u201cJesus Christ the same \u201c\u2026 to<\/strong> day \u2026\u201d<\/strong> \u2013 what a time we have with that middle span! Amid the dull monotony of things as they are, when the skies seem leaden and nothing breaks on the uninteresting scene, it is easier to visualize the Christ of the Galilean past or the Christ of the glorious future than to expect great things from the Christ of the glamour less now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But our text stoutly insists \u201c\u2026and to day \u2026\u201d<\/strong> We may not see Him in the flesh as they saw Him yesterday, and we see not yet all things put under Him as one day we shall, but He said He would be with us \u201call the days,\u201d and that includes today. Is not many a Christian experience like this verse with \u201c\u2026and to day\u2026\u201d<\/strong> in very fine type- strong in faith in the Christ of yesterday and forever, but very weak in faith in His presence and power today?<\/p>\n<\/body>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
