Morning:
We look not at the things which are seen,but at the things
which are not seen: for the things which are seen are
temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
Here have we no continuing city. Ye have in heaven a better
and an enduring substance.
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father’s good pleasure
to give you the kingdom.
Now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through
manifold temptations. There the wicked cease from troubling;
and there the weary be at rest.
We that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened.
God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall
be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall
there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
The sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be
compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Our
light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a
far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory.

Evening:
He is our peace.
God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not
imputing their trespasses unto them; . . . for he hath made him
to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the
righteousness of God in him. Having made peace through the
blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself;
by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in
heaven. And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in
your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled in the
body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and
unblameable and unreproveable in his sight. Blotting out the
handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was
contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his
cross. Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law
of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in
himself of twain one new man, so making peace.
Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the
world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled,
neither let it be afraid.
