Faith Useful in Dark Days
Isaiah 50:10-11
Who is among you that fears the LORD, that obeys the voice of his servant, that walks in darkness, and has no light?…


On ancient churches we see the dial, the quaint invention of our fathers; but this is the pathetic failure of the dial, it is of use only as long as the sun shines. But what we want is the faith that helps us when it is dark, when disappointment lacerates the soul, when the grave is being dug, when trials lay us low, and when guilt darkens the day and puts the shutters up on the windows of the heart.

(J. A. Davies, B. D.)
