The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked; who can know it? I, the Lord, search the heart, I test the mind, even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings. § You have set our iniquities before You, our secret sins in the light of Your countenance. § The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then . . . Peter went out and wept bitterly.Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because He knew all men, and had no need that anyone should testify of man, for He knew what was in man. § He knows our frame; He remembers that we are dust. § A bruised reed He will not break, and smoking flax He will not quench.The Lord knows those who are His. § I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own… My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
Daily Light on the Daily Path or Daily Light is a Christian daily devotional scripture reading published by Bagster & Sons about 1875. It has been reprinted continually since then. It consists of brief groupings of scripture passages which speak to prominent Biblical themes—two themes (morning and evening) for each day of the year. It appends no commentary, but simply allows scripture to speak for itself.
Samuel Bagster was a noted London bookseller born in the 18th century, and he established a strong family tradition of daily Bible reading. Members of his family turned that habit into this devotional classic. Each day of the year contains a brief collection of NKJV verses organized by topic into moving morning and evening readings. 384 pages, softcover, Whitaker House.
