[Songs in the Night - March 4]
Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Matthew 28:20
THIS text contains a precious thought—that the
Lord has been with his representatives in all their
labors of love and self-denial, throughout the entire
age, noting their efforts, assisting, encouraging, sustaining
them, and surely watering and refreshing all who are making his service their special object in life—ministering his grace to others, watering and feeding
them.
And if this has been true in the past, all through
the age, how specially true we may realize it to be now,
in the end of the age, in the time of harvest, in the
time of our Lord's second presence!
How we may
realize that he is with us, in sympathy, in co-operation,
in assistance, in sustaining grace, able and willing
to make all of our experiences profitable to us, and to
use us abundantly in showing forth the praises of
him who has called us out of darkness into his marvelous
light! Z'03-91 R3166:6 (Hymn 226)
