Judges 16:1-31; Isaiah 35:1-10; 1 Corinthians 13:1-13
Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Psalm 73:24
When an artist draws a picture, all things relate to a point on the horizon. Doing this keeps the objects in the picture in a proper perspective and proportion. In Psalm 73, Asaph gives us a horizon point on which to focus—afterward! If my gaze is averted, and I begin to focus on time instead of eternity, circumstances in my life will appear distorted and mishapen, perhaps taking on more importance than is warranted. How vital to our peace, that we keep His perspective. —Lynn Shatford
Pilgrim of Jesus, o’er life’s troubled sea,
Courage, and onward pursue;
A crown of rejoicing is waiting for thee,
Ever keep heaven in view. —H. R. Jeffrey
