Pearl Bennett

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” - Phil 4:13 It is said that there are three words in the English Vocabulary that are more solemn than all of the others. They are life, death, and eternity. Life is more serious than to die; the object of Christ’s death was life. A Christian’s death gives him a more abundant life. Death is a joyful messenger of peace whose kind hands opens to the weary pilgrim the gate of immortality lets the oppressed go free.
