A truly excellent devotional I am now reading is 19th century Bible expositor Adolph Saphir's, *The Hidden Life*.

Here are some gems:

*In the sweet valley of humiliation we behold Jesus exalted on His throne. Then the happy land, far, far away, seems very nigh; for we see the King in His beauty; our eyes behold the land that is far off.* 
  
  
*Chosen in Christ, redeemed with His most precious blood, we know ourselves loved with a love which is its own source, which ever sustains and renews itself, and which brings us all that pertains to life and godliness.*  
  
Boo-yah. I hope you're encouraged.
