{"product_id":"2940015795172","title":"Brief Thoughts for the Followers of Jesus","description":"There are three exercises the importance of which cannot he over-rated, namely, prayer, self-examination, and devout meditation. The entire disregard of these duties is a clear indication of an unregenerate state; and where the attention paid to them is not earnest and habitual, the soul cannot be in a healthy and prosperous condition.\u003cbr\u003eTo aid the Christian in the performance of these duties, especially the latter — devout meditation, is the design of this little work. The Psalmist could say, \"Your testimonies are my meditation;\" and those who are anxious to imitate his example in this particular, by making the things of God's law the subjects of their daily thoughts, may, perhaps, find something in the following pages that will contribute to their edification.\u003cbr\u003eThis humble production is devoutly commended to the blessing of that Divine Spirit, by whose inspiration the Scriptures were first given, and whose illuminating influence is indispensably requisite — in order to our being brought to behold the wondrous things which they contain. To both writer and reader, may He graciously grant that spiritual discernment whereby the truth as it is in Jesus may be rightly apprehended, and that spiritual relish for it, which will lead to the adoption of the prophet's declaration, \"Your word was found, and I ate it, and it was to me the joy and rejoicing of my heart!\"","brand":"JMacDuff Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47069689217264,"sku":"2940015795172","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940015795172_p0.jpg?v=1763624495","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940015795172","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
