THOUGHT for the day

Standing by my mother's tombstone, I saw it for what it was_a place where only mortal remains lay. Her mortal body was only a coat laid aside because the wearer needed it no longer. But she, that gloriously lovely spirit, was not there. I walked out of the cemetery and rarely return_for she is not there. She is with her loved ones for always. "Why seek ye the living among the dead?" (Luke 24:5). You can depend upon the reliability of Christ. He would not let us believe and hold convictions so sacred unless they were true.
