I feel a little like John Adams felt in the story told me by Brother Will Tidwell. Daniel Webster made a call upon John Adams before he died. Webster asked Adams how he was getting along. John Adams replied, “Very well. The top is all off the house, the windows are getting dim. The foundation is very shaky, and as far as I can see, the landlord does not aim to make any more improvements.”
Beloved, as I journey along life’s way getting older day by day, I well know that some sweet day this old preacher will pass away. I know that as I rise above the skies, toil and sacrifice will be left so far behind that they will never overtake me and cause me another heartache. Then what joy and peace and rest will come to this old preacher who has done his best. Well, glory to Jesus forever and ever! I haven’t been lazy or fussy or fighting, but have kept right on preaching and shouting.
* THE END *
