The Study of the Word

I am daily more convinced that the study of the Word is the only sure way to growth and strength. The true way to get interested in the Word is to feel you need its counsel to guide and succor you. The Word is the only thing for faith to cling to; and it is in depending on God’s Word, because it is God’s word, that the soul is strengthened in God, and not from the blessings, merely, which flow from keeping the Word. If we felt it more a journey of faith, we should be more unceasing in seeking for the Word, as the trellis-work on which our faith might climb.
