Seek, and ye shall find

"Jesus, the promised help supply,
Support the feeble, fainting mind,
Nor let me in the winter fly,
But seek till I acceptance find,
But ask, till I am saved from sin,
And knock, till mercy takes me in."

- Charles Wesley

  1. I too am amazed at Charles Wesley's talent. For the first time in my life, I am going through the Methodist hymnal that John Wesley compiled. This is a treasure trove that is organized by the order of spiritual awakening beginning with "Prayers for Repentance" and a section entitled "For Mourners convinced of Sin." I find my heart cry in several verses found in these sections. I have two more quotes from these hymns that I need to get posted before they start piling up. Part of the idea behind this website is to give my children an idea of what their father believed. However, I am tempted to delete the political posts in order to not taint the religious posts. I just need to give it more thought.
