The resurrection of those who have fallen asleep in Christ and their translation together with those who are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord is the imminent and blessed hope of the church.
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name.
John 1:12.
Daily Thought
Nothing that in any way concerns our peace is too small for Him to notice. There is no chapter in our experience too dark for Him to read; there is no perplexity too difficult for Him to unravel .... No sincere prayer... [can] escape the lips, of which our heavenly Father is unobservant, or in which He takes no immediate interest.
