The Safest Shelter 

"And a Man shall be as an hiding-place from the wind and a covert from the
tempest" (Isaiah 32:2). 

Who this Man is we all know. Who could He be but the Second Man, the LORD from
heaven, the man of sorrows, the Son of Man? What a hiding place He has been to
His people! He bears the full force of the wind Himself, and so He shelters
those who hide themselves in Him. We have thus escaped the wrath of God, and we
shall thus escape the anger of men, the cares of this life, and the dread of
death. Why do we stand in the wind when we may so readily and so surely get out
of it by hiding behind our LORD? Let us this day run to Him and be at peace. 

Often the common wind of trouble rises in its force and becomes a tempest,
sweeping everything before it. Things which looked firm and stable rock in the
blast, and many and great are the falls among our carnal confidences. Our LORD
Jesus, the glorious man, is a covert which is never blown down. In Him we mark
the tempest sweeping by, but we ourselves rest in delightful serenity. 

This day let us just stow ourselves away in our hiding place and sit and sing
under the protection of our Covert. Blessed Jesus! Blessed Jesus! How we love
Thee! Well we may, for Thou art to us a shelter in the time of storm.

The Broken Body & Shed Blood of Christ. Mark. 14. 22-24 




1 Glory to God on high! 
Our peace is made with heaven; 
The Son of God came down to die, 
That sin might be forgiven. 

2 His precious blood was shed, 
His body bruised for sin; 
Remember this in eating bread, 
And that in drinking wine. 

3 Approach his royal board, 
In his rich garments clad; 
Join, every tongue, to praise the Lord,  And every heart be glad. 

4 [The Father gives the Son; 
The Son his flesh and blood; 
The Spirit applies, and faith puts on,  The righteousness of God.] 

5 Sinners the gift receive, 
And each says, “I am chief; 
Thou know’st, O Lord, I would believe;  O help my unbelief!ö 

6 Lord, help us from above; 
The power is all thy own; 
Faith is thy gift, and hope, and love,  For of ourselves we’ve none.
