1 Kings 19:1-21; Jeremiah 31:1-40; Hebrews 2:1-18

The former things have passed away. Revelation 21:4 NKJV

Many years ago in Largs I was looking over the Firth of Clyde watching a beautiful sunset. Very soon the sun disappeared from sight and the shades of evening came quickly until it was totally dark. The splendour of the moment was gone. I continued to walk along the promenade thinking of that future event that awaits us when “There shall be no night there: they need no lamp or light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign
forever…” (Rev. 22:5). No matter how dark your night is, it is only temporary. Look forward to the time of endless light. —Jim Paul

Beyond the sunset, O blissful morning,
When with our Saviour, heaven has begun.
Earth’s toiling ended, O glorious dawning,
Beyond the sunset when day is done. —Virgil Brock
