The poet has said,

"O precious Bible! burning words from heaven,
We'll ever cherish thee in our heart,
Sweet is the counsel by thy pages given'
On life's dark ocean, our only chart.
O precious volume! only in thy pages
We read the duty of all our race;
Only thy sunbeams, shining through the ages,
Reveal the wonders of saving grace."

Oh, my grandson, it is a glorious thing to understand what God requires
of us and to live by it! To accept Christ as our Saviour, Lord, and
Master, to strive sincerely and devotedly to follow in the path that He
has mapped out for us in this life, is the most wonderful, the most
reasonable, and the most satisfactory way to live. It means peace in our
hearts, peace of mind, contentment, happiness, hope, and an assurance of
a life beyond the grave that shall never end. What a glorious plan God
has made for all who will love and serve Him with all of their hearts!

Oh, how sad to see so many go through life and face death without a hope
of living in heaven with God forever in the end of time! How can anyone
be so ignorant or be filled with such a lack of wisdom! It is beyond me.
We all have to die, which is a proven fact. What then! Why try to get
around it? It seems that every person should open his heart and mind to
the Word of God and accept Christ with an open mind and consider it the
greatest privilege in this world to live for Christ, the Creator of all
mankind. We should be like Job of old who said, "I have esteemed the
words of his mouth more than my necessary food." Job 23:12.
