Billy Graham Devotional 4 April 2019 – Die To Yourself
Topic: Die To Yourself
Scripture: The Lord is close to those whose hearts are breaking; he rescues those who are humbly sorry for their sins. —Psalm 34:18 (TLB)
Message: In God’s economy, you must go down into the valley of grief before you can scale the heights of spiritual glory. You must become tired and weary of living alone before you seek and find the fellowship of Christ. You must come to the end of self before you begin to live. The mourning of inadequacy is a weeping that catches the attention of God.

I am not exaggerating when I say that my mourning was turned to joy, and my sighing into singing.

Prayer for the day
In the valleys I have been drawn closer to You, my God and Comforter.
