Eternal Hope

In the absence of anything else to post tonight, here is a favourite poem. "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.” (1 Corinthians 2:9). 

Gone, they tell me, is youth,

Gone is the strength of my life.

Nothing remains but decline,

Nothing but age and decay.

Not so! I'm God's little child,

Only beginning to live;

Coming the days of my prime,

Coming the strength of my life,

Coming the vision of God,

Coming my bloom and my power.

William Newton Clarke
