STRENGTH BEYOND SORROW

“Set not your hearts on the flowers of this world.”

“They shall fade and die.  Prize the Rose of Sharon and the Lily of the Valley.  He changes not!”

“Live nearer to Christ than to any person on this earth; so that when they are taken, you may have Him to love and lean upon.”

–Robert Murray McCheyne
