Such a beautiful scene! How refreshing a place like this is in the midst of God’s creation so marred by the effects of sin.
If to us “created things though pleasant, now bear to us death’s stamp,” how must God feel, for whose “pleasure all things are and were cread?”
What of man in regard to his right to live on earth? His gray hair, failing eyesight and wasting body tell that he is not fit to live here.
In spite of not being good enough to live in the world, some people foolishly think they will be given a place in heaven on their own merits.
