FROM A LOVED ONE IN HEAVEN
I would not have you grieve for me today
Nor weep beside my vacant chair.
Could you but know my daily portion here
You would not, could not, wish me there.
I know now why He said, “Ear hath not heard. "
I have no words, no alphabet;
Or even if I had, I DARE not tell
Because you could not bear it yet.
So, only this - I am the same, though changed,
Like Him! A joy more rich and strong
Than I had dreamed that any heart could hold,
And all my life is one glad song.
Sometimes when you are talking to our Lord,
He turns and speaks to me....Dear heart;
In that rare moment, you and I are just
The distance of a word apart!
And so my loved ones, do not grieve for me
Around the family board today;
Instead, rejoice, for we are one in Him,
And so I am not far away.
Marthasnell Nicholson
(Contributed by Mrs. W.E. Sonnamaker, Woodson,
Texas.)

by Bro. Pete Bradfield
If there is one thing in this world that is sad, it is a
Christian who is not growing. We must grow in order
to do our best job for our Lord. Grow by your
mistakes, even by your sins. A good many people
collapse under a fall and stay down. When a good
man falls, he falls on his knees. You can become
strongest at your weakest places. Grow by taking on
yourself a task beyond your powers. That will throw
you back on God's grace. Don't limit yourself to
things you can do....that won't stretch you. Do
something that you can not do, and that will make
you grow in the doing.
When God called to Mary, she did not shrink, nor
did she become proud; she simply said, “Behold!
The handmaid of the Lord"____I am ready for
anything - and she was. Are you growing in your
Christian life? Remember this — if you fall, don't
give up....GET UP!
Bro. Pete
