Day 35

GLORIOUS CROWN
 

In that day the Lord Almighty will be a glorious crown,
a beautiful wreath for the remnant of his people.
Isaiah 28:5

FROM THE FATHER'S HEART
My child, I know you are weary at times. Like a runner who hits an invisible wall, you will be faced with choices. Will you continue or surrender? Just remember I'm on either side of you, cheering you on to victory. I will be your strength. The finish line is in sight. Run the race with persistence!

A GRATEFUL RESPONSE
When earth's joys fade, and its pleasures lose their allure, only one thing remains of value—You, Lord, and only You.  A relationship with You is better than ten thousand rewards on earth. You are my crown, Lord. You are my wreath of victory at the end of the race.

SIMPLE TRUTH

The joys we experience in our journey on earth can't compare to the treasures waiting in heaven.
