From the very beginning of time,
we needed a cure.
We were born lost.
Created for another world.
May we find Him.
"Because your heart is lifted up and you have said,
'I am a god,
I sit in the seat of gods,
in the Heart of the Seas'
yet,
You are a man not God,
Although you make your heart like the heart of God...
There is no secret that is a match for you." Ezekiel 28:1-3
Why is our heart lifted up?
Bow down, O my soul.
"A ruin so terrible and so early has fallen upon each of us.
Let proud man kick against the doctrine as he may,
Scripture tells us assuredly that we are born in sin and 'shapen in iniquity'
...
From the very birth we go astray, speaking lies,
and in the very birth ...
unless God has mercy, you are very lost from the very beginning."
Charles Spurgeon
PRAYER FROM PSALMS
Dear God,
We are born with the fatal disease of sin
inherited from our earthly parents (Psalm 51:5).
Thank you for the "perfect cure of eternal salvation."
(I Peter 1:23).

No, not one.
"There’s not a friend like the lowly Jesus,
No, not one! No, not one!
None else could heal all our soul’s diseases,
No, not one! No, not one!"
None but Jesus!
