Isn't it wonderful how our Beloved can be stolen by the love of one who accepts His invitation to go forth with Him to seek and to rescue the perishing?
The scriptures declare,
"Thou hast given me courage."
If the Bridegroom's heart may be encouraged by the fidelity and loving companionship of his bride, it is not surprising that we may cheer and encourage one another in our mutual service.
The apostle Paul had a steep mountain of difficulty to climb when he was being led captive to Rome, not knowing things that awaited him there, but when the brethren met him at the Appii Forum, he thanked God and took courage.
May we also strengthen one another's hands in God!
