From Earth to Glory – Comforting Thoughts from Psalm 23

Description

If a poll were taken of Christians, Psalm 23 would no doubt be one of the most popular portions of the Word of God. From Earth to Glory presents “comfortings thought from Psalm 23” with the author considering the psalm as a description of the journey of the Christian through life. Each believer has the assurance that when this life is over and the journey is complete, we have a heavenly home awaiting us. As believers, we know the best is yet to come. Heaven is our final destination. The author states, “But it is the journey, described in the first five verses of this Psalm, that we often struggle with. We can sing about ‘the sweet by and by’, but it is ‘the nasty now and now’ that gives us trouble”. From Earth to Glory is a delightful consideration of Psalm 23.
