I read this scripture plus the expoundation of it by Spurgeon to the kids the other night. It was fantastic!! Here are a few quotes from this Morning and Evening's August 31, morning portion.
"O blessed hurricane that drives the soul to God and God alone."
I asked the children what they thought this meant......and how a "hurricane" could be blessed in doing so. Aren't hurricanes scary and why would they be blessed since it is a natural disaster. We had a wonderful time discussing what this meant. So much so, that we could only finish 1/2 a small page that night..........and then continued the previous night. What a great blessing this was and is and will continue to be to my family's souls.
When in heaven, it would be a great honor to be able to thank Spurgeon for being used of God; for aspiring faithfully and diligently in the calling of the Lord Jesus Christ.
