DAILY READINGS: 1 Kings 1; Jeremiah 9; Ephesians 3
God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be
no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be
any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Rev. 21:4
What bliss awaits us as God’s children. Possibly sooner than we realize,
we shall leave this world behind, and be ushered into heaven
and its joys. There is much that we do not know about that blessed
place, because our present limitations prevent us from taking it in.
But one thing we do know, every single evidence of the curse that
sin introduced in Eden will be absent there, and the Lamb will be
the light thereof. Let’s live out life’s litt le day in the joyful anticipation
of that moment of glorious emancipation. —W. H. Burnett
We shall read the tender meaning, of the sorrows and alarms,
As we trod the desert leaning, on His everlasting arms. —Anne R. Cousins
