My One Aspiration

July 24th Choice Gleanings


That in all things He might have the preeminence.
Colossians 1:18

Yes, we desire that Christ have preeminence in the church. But He should have first place in all things. That means in my life, too. Start at the heart, what I love. My mind, what I think. My body, how I dress. My home, what I do. My family, how I treat others. My friendships, who I’m with. My conversations, what I say. Now you’ve got it--in all things He should have the preeminence. Is it so?
--Rex Trogdon

O grant that nothing in my soul,
May dwell but Thy pure love alone!
Oh may Thy love possess me whole,
My joy, my treasure and my crown!
--P. Gerhardt
