Bowen's Daily Meditations
"And as thy days, so shall thy strength be. - Deuteronomy 33:25.
This probably means that time, instead of diminishing the strength and crippling the energies of the people of God, shall be commissioned to convey unto them increase of spiritual strength, and to render them day by day, month by month, year by year, more vigorous and more victorious in the conflict with sin, more energetic in faith, more sublime in patience and fortitude, more meek and lowly of heart, more fervent in admiration of Christ, more self-denying and devoted in his service, more generous, more pitiful, more useful.
In this view they are delightful words to greet us on the threshold of a new year; and we accept them as a sweet and blessed omen. Bring us strength, ye coming days, strength to glorify our Master, to resist evil, to accomplish good, to hasten heavenward; and ye shall be most welcome.
