“Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler.”—Psalm 91:3.

GOD delivers His people from the snare of the fowler in two senses. From, and out of.

“Martha was cumbered about much serving.”—Luke 10:40.

“Martha was cumbered about much serving.”—Luke 10:40. HER fault was not that she served: the condition of a servant well becomes every Christian. “I serve,” should be the motto of all the princes of the royal family of heaven. Nor was it her fault that she had “much serving.” We cannot do too much. Let us do all that we possibly can; let head, and heart, and hands, be engaged in the Master’s service.
