My Offering

Greetings from Me and My House,

I came across a quote tonight in Jonathan Edwards' Religious Affections, in the Author's Preface. It expresses just what I am endeavouring to do here.

I many times share 2 Corinthians 1:24, "Not for that we have dominion over your faith, but are helpers of your joy: for by faith ye stand," for that is truly my desire. But I like the way Edwards put this.

"My design is to contribute my mite, and use my best (however feeble) endeavours to this end" *"knowing clearly and distinctly what we ought to contend for."

SDG,
At Jesus' feet,
Lisa
