Our Hope

“I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”
— John 14:3

“Is the thought of the Lord's coming your daily delight? Does it influence you in the ten thousand details of your everyday life? Or are you so walking hand in hand with the world that the very thought of His coming fills you with shame?”

“He is gone to prepare a place for us. … We shall be there … ever with Him: no interruption, no decay of joy, but rather ever increasing delight, as there always is when the object is worthy of the heart, and here it is infinite.”
