Praise is the rehearsal of our eternal song. By grace we learn to sing, and in glory we continue to sing. What will some of you do when you get to heaven, if you go on grumbling all the way? Do not hope to get to heaven in that style. But now begin to bless the name of the Lord.

Obedience is the highest practical courage.

Let gratitude be awakened; let humility be deepened; let love be quickened.

We see his smile of love even when others see nothing but the black hand of death smiting our best beloved.
