Zechariah 9:16-17 "They will sparkle in his land like jewels in a crown. How attractive and beautiful they will be!"
A childhood song:
"When he cometh, when he cometh
To take up his jewels,
All the pure ones, all the fair ones,
His loved and his own.
Like the stars of the morning,
His bright crown adorning
They shall shine in their beauty,
Bright gems for his crown."
What a comfort to think that our loved ones are those pure and fair jewels, beautiful because of Jesus, certainly "his loved and his own."
Rob and Christa, we sang this very song at the prayer meeting we held at City Life a few days ago! I could hardly make it through the third verse:
ReplyDelete"Little children, little children
who love their Redeemer
Are the jewels, precious jewels
His loved and His own..."
This song will always remind me of your sweet daughter.
Love you all.
