Words of Encouragement
Psalm 23:3 He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Isaiah 40:10 Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong hand, and his arm shall rule for him: behold, his reward is with him, and his work before him.
For Heaven’s Sake…
“These visions of future glory, scenes pictured by the hand of God, should be dear to His church today, when the controversy of the ages is rapidly closing and the promised blessings are soon to be realized in all their fullness. PK 722.1
“In the earth made new, the redeemed will engage in the occupations and pleasures that brought happiness to Adam and Eve in the beginning. The Eden life will be lived, the life in garden and field. “They shall build houses, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build, and another inhabit; they shall not plant, and another eat: for as the days of a tree are the days of My people, and Mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands.” Isaiah 65:21, 22. PK 730.6
“There every power will be developed, every capability increased. The grandest enterprises will be carried forward, the loftiest aspirations will be reached, the highest ambitions realized. And still there will appear new heights to surmount, new wonders to admire, new truths to comprehend, fresh objects of study to call forth the powers of body and mind and soul. PK 731.1
“The prophets to whom these great scenes were revealed longed to understand their full import. They “inquired and searched diligently:. . . searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify. . . . Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you.” 1 Peter 1:10-12. PK 731.2
“To us who are standing on the very verge of their fulfillment, of what deep moment, what living interest, are these delineations of the things to come–events for which, since our first parents turned their steps from Eden, God’s children have watched and waited, longed and prayed! PK 731.3
“Fellow pilgrim, we are still amid the shadows and turmoil of earthly activities; but soon our Saviour is to appear to bring deliverance and rest. Let us by faith behold the blessed hereafter as pictured by the hand of God. He who died for the sins of the world is opening wide the gates of Paradise to all who believe on Him. Soon the battle will have been fought, the victory won. Soon we shall see Him in whom our hopes of eternal life are centered. And in His presence the trials and sufferings of this life will seem as nothingness. The former things “shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.” “Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompense of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. For yet a little while, and He that shall come will come, and will not tarry.” “Israel shall be saved. . . with an everlasting salvation: ye shall not be ashamed nor confounded world without end.” Isaiah 65:17; Hebrews 10:35-37; Isaiah 45:17.” PK 731.4

For Health’s Sake…
Every organ in your body needs to rest. They rest during your sleeping hours. When you don’t rest well, toxins are thrown off from every organ and is reflected in your skin and hair.
The hours before midnight are twice as effective as those after midnight. Staying up late does the body harm. So does eating heavy meals and watching TV just before retiring for the evening. A period of quiet leading up to bedtime is best for a healthy rest.
Always sleep with the window open. The fresh air provides negative ions, which increase antioxidants in the body. Antioxidants destroy free radicals that damage the body. Some lock themselves in at night with the windows tightly shut. While country air is best, regardless of where you live, some fresh air is better than none at all. And it is not necessary or may not be possible or safe to have the window fully open. Just be assured, a slightly opened window will suffice.
Some have said, “Night air is not healthy.” To that, Pastor Flemons responds, “Get air at night. It is the only air available!” Your skin will be vibrant and glow when you do!
