Worth a Visit

In case you haven't guessed the visitor is Jesus Christ. Hayford begins with an introduction to the visitor and follows this with sections on his suffering, his wounds, his blood, and his death. It is written in the style that we have become accustomed to from Hayford and is a good devotional on the life of Christ and how it is to impact us today. It also includes many of his poems which are always poignant.The themes of this book are nothing new, God's love and purpose for us, his wonderful power provided to us, and the life of Christ given for us to have full life. The book is not really focussed on the historical person of Christ but on his reality in Christian's lives today. As such Hayford is insightful and comprehensive, yet precise, in providing a picture of what that means to us.I would recommend this book for those who enjoy reading contemporary literature on the "deeper life" or those who have enjoyed Hayford's other books. It is the old, old story for his people today
