Charles Spurgeon's "Morning & Evening"
Morning “Reproach hath broken my heart.” Psalms 69:1-4 , Psalms 69:6-21 Let us read a selection of verses from the sixty-ninth Psalm, in which David was led to set forth the Redeemer’s sufferings before and upon the cross.

Words to Ponder

1894
Rainisoalambo, a diviner on Madagascar, throws away all his amulets and apparatus of divination. The night before, wretched with ulcers, he had called out to the God of Norwegian missionaries and sensed he must get rid of his sorcerous props. Doing so today, he immediately feels a weight lift off him. He knows that he has become a new man and begins reading the Bible. As he assimilates the message of the New Tesament, he will begin soul-winning. A group calling themselves "Disciples of the Lord" will form around him and become an evangelistic force on the island.
