BOB Good morning. This is Bob Peden of Central, a United Methodist Community here in Meridian. The 30th psalm written by King David says in part, "Weeping may go on all night, but joy comes with the morning." Indeed life in this world often seems to be full of weeping and sorrow. Sorrow for what we have lost. Sorrow for what we never had. Sorrow for what has been done to us. Sorrow for what we have done. But God assures us that "in that great wakin' up morning, when the Son of the living God descends and calls forth His children" we shall know eternal joy. In the book of Revelation, he promises, "I will remove all of their sorrows, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. For the old world and its evils are gone forever." So, we remember in good times and bad that "joy comes in the morning." As you begin a new day at work, or school, or play, remember that the rising sun is but a faint reminder of the joy that will one day come for those who believe.
