I AM WITH YOU ALWAYS. Matthew 28:20

It is well there is one who is ever the same, and who is ever with us. It is well there is one stable rock amidst the billows of the sea of life. O my soul, set not your affections upon rusting, moth-eaten, decaying treasures, but set your heart upon Him who abides forever faithful to you. Build not your house upon the moving quicksand of a deceitful world, but found thy hopes upon this rock, which, amid descending rain and roaring floods, shall stand immovably secure. My soul, I charge you, lay up thy treasure in the only secure cabinet; store thy jewels where you canst never lose them. Put you all in Christ; set all your affections on His person, all thy hope in His merit, all thy trust in His afficacious blood, all thy joy in His presence, and so you may laugh at loss, and defy destruction. Remember that all the flowers in the world's garden fade by turns, and the day cometh when nothing will be left but the black, cold earth.

Death's black extinguisher must soon put out thy candle. Oh! How sweet to have sunlight when the candle is gone! The dark flood must thyslf with Him who will go with you through the black and surging current of death's stream, and who will land you safely on the celestial shore, and make you set with Him in heavenly places forever. Go, sorrowing son of affliction, tell thy secrets to the Friend who stick closer than a brother. Trust all thy concerns with His who never can be taken from you, who will never leave you, and who will never let you leave Him, even "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and to-day, and forever." "Lo, I am with you always," is enough for my soul to live upon let who will forsake me. GOD BLESS YOU.

whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which
every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the
measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of
itself in love.

 ¹⁷This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that ye henceforth walk not as other Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,
