“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” Prov. 4:18
The day began brightly but soon turned dreary as a thick layer of clouds blanketed the sky. First a drizzle, then a downpour followed by intermittent showers throughout the day. Any hope for a “nice” day looked doubtful. But before evening approached, an opening appeared in the clouds allowing in a ray of sunshine to pierce the gloom. Before long, the clouds had parted and the sun was shining in a full blaze of glory. How the events of the day were soon forgotten! Though the storms of life may rage and the brightness of life’s promises are obscured, don’t forget dear Christian that you are traveling on a path that will lead to an eternal Day — where there are no clouds to lessen our joy in which the Son is shining in all His glory. How soon the past will disappear and how great our joy will be!

While we walk the pilgrim pathway,
Clouds will overspread the sky;
But when trav’ling days are over,
Not a shadow, not a sigh. – Eliza Hewitt
