Sound of trumpet could be heard from the distance and the weary pilgrim walking steadily with the certificate of Gods righteousness in his hand. He kept looking at the pearly gates ahead while ignoring the tempting sounds around him. The joy of meeting his wonderful Saviour swelled from within with this song of praise on his lips: There dwells my Lord, my King, Judged here unfit to live; There angels to Him sing; And lowly homage give. Chorus: O happy place! When shall I be, My God, with Thee, to see Thy face! The narrow and strait way to heaven cannot accommodate excesses but this undaunted pilgrim was determined to reach the last mile of the way. At last, he made it. He was welcomed into the glorious and beautiful city, whose maker and builder thereof is God. The angels sang a new and melodious song to usher him before the Almighty God. The weary saint received strength and clothed in beautiful apparel with glow of glory radiating all over his changed body. Well done, good and faithful servant enter into your rest was the pronouncement from the Holy God who sits on the glistering and bright throne. Thus, this pilgrim joined the saints from all races and ages with the angels praising and worshiping God all through eternity. What a great victory! Now, we are still on this side of eternity. Will you be among the numbers on the final day? This pilgrim toiled both day and night doing his Fathers business. He refused to compromise his stand for purity and Gods commandments. However, he was tempted daily but pleasing His Saviour was uppermost in his heart. He relied on the Lord for guidance and strength. Make up your mind to follow the Lord all the way for our light afflictions, temptations and persecutions are for but a short period. These cannot be compared to the weight of glory and rewards waiting for us. Be born again and keep your certificate of Gods righteousness intact and look up, for your redemption draws near. Our loving Saviour will soon appear. Be prepared to meet your God! Have a lovely day!
