It is Peter who tells us' to set our hopes on the grace to be brought to us when Jesus is revealed at His coming'.One commentator writes,'It is the great charactistic of the Christian that he lives in hope;and because he lives in hope he can endure the trials of the present.For the Christian the best is always still to come.The Christian can live with gratitude for all the mercies of the past,with resolution to meet the challenge of the present,and with the certain hope that in Christ the best is yet to be.'
'Be still my soul ,the hour is hastening on
When we shall be forever with the Lord,
When disappointment,grief and fear are gone,
Sorrow forgot,love's purest joys restored.'
'Jane L. Borthwick'
